Answer to Question 1

Unemployment compensation is a state government transfer program that pays cash benefits for a certain period of time to laid-off workers who have worked for a specified period of time for a covered employer.

Answer to Question 2

a. By accepting this offer, you will gain 2 (10  8).
b. Yes. By accepting this offer, you will gain 8 (10  2). If you choose to accept an offer from a different seller, your surplus will be lower. By accepting the lowest ask price of 2, you will maximize your surplus from this trade.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
