Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Curve C represents the correct Marginal Cost of Pollution, as it increases at a decreasing rate, reaches a maximum point at the optimal pollution level, and then starts decreasing as the cost of reducing pollution becomes too high. This curve aligns with the economic principle of achieving the optimal level of pollution, where the marginal benefits and marginal costs are equal.
