A firm is analyzing five different production technologies (A, B, C, D, and E) to produce 100 units of a product. The coordinates below represent the required units of labor and capital for each technology: (Labor, Capital).
- Technology A: (2, 8)
- Technology B: (4, 5)
- Technology C: (5, 6)
- Technology D: (7, 3)
- Technology E: (9, 2)
Based on the principle of eliminating technically inefficient options, which technology is dominated by another available technology?
