Eldin is a house painter. He can paint three houses per week. He is considering hiring his friend Murphy. Murphy can paint five houses per week. What is the maximum total output possible if Eldin hires Murphy?

Explanation: Maximum total output can be determined by taking the sum of the values of final goods and services (houses) produced by each production participant, in this case, Eldin and Murphy. In simpler terms, maximum total output is the total volume or amount of final output produced by Eldin and Murphy using given inputs in a given period of time.

The value added by Eldin in a week is given as three (3)

The value added by Murphy in a week is five (5)

Since total output is additive, maximum total output is calculated as:

3 houses + 5 houses = 8 houses.

Answer:

The maximum total output if Eldin hires Murphy is 8.

Explanation:

Maximum total Output: The sum of final values of good and services produced at various stages of work.
Calculating the maximum total output for a painting job by Murphy:

No. of houses painted in a week by Eldin= 3

No. of houses painted in a week by Murphy= 5

Maximum Total Output= ( No. of houses painted by Eldin)+( No. of houses painted by Murphy)

Maximum Total Output= 3+5 = 8

Hence, 8 is the amount of final output produced by Eldin and Murphy in a given week.
