Answer to Question 1

The phrase that a firm's plant is fixed refers to the fact that, in the short run, there are some factors that are fixed, that is, the quantity employed cannot be changed. These factors of production, which include factors such as the firm's capital and land, are collectively referred to as the firm's plant.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
