A rapidly-growing fast-casual restaurant serving a regional market in the Ohio and Indiana markets was concerned about meeting demand for its burritos and burrito bowls during peak lunch hours. Therefore, the firm added a series of workers in a pilot test in their busiest shop in western Ohio. The shop added more and more workers trying to find their most efficient production point given additional workers. The following table depicts their production capabilities between their critical hours of 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Note there have been no changes to the equipment or to the physical plant of the shop; only the number workers has changed.

  1. Graph the performance of the workers using Excel; connect the points on the graph with a line or curve.
  2. What principle of economics has the firm encountered in its pilot test of adding workers attempting to meet peak lunch demand?
  3. Will this principle have any effect on the costs of the firm at some point? Please explain the relationship between costs and production changes displayed in the graph.

Explanation must be one paragraph long. The explain must be clear and persistent, and list number for answer.

Scenario

You are the nurse working triage in the emergency department (ED). This afternoon a woman brings in her father, ALI, a 72-year-old who is a retired doctor. The daughter reports that over the past several months she has noticed her father has progressively had problems with his mental capacity. These changes have developed gradually but seem to be getting worse. At times he is alert, and at other times he seems disoriented, depressed, and tearful. He is forgetting things and doing things out of the ordinary, such as placing the milk in the cupboard and sugar in the refrigerator. He had difficulty finding objects in the kitchen and at times forgets where his room is.

This morning he thought it was nighttime and wondered what his daughter was doing at his house. He could not pour his coffee, and he seems to be getting more agitated. ALI reports that he has been having memory problems for the past year and at times has difficulty remembering the names of family members and friends.

A review of his past medical history (PMH) is significant for hypercholesterolemia and coronary artery disease (CAD). He had a myocardial infarction (MI) 5 years ago. ALI’s vital signs (VS) today are all within normal limits (WNL).

Q:Discuss three cognitive changes seen in several elderly patients?
