A landowner's share of a harvest is plotted against the worker's daily hours of free time. The resulting graph is a hump-shaped curve. The landowner's share is zero when the worker has 24 hours of free time (no work) and also zero when the worker has only 7 hours of free time. The share reaches its maximum when the worker has 16 hours of free time. Based on this information, arrange the following scenarios in order from the SMALLEST landowner's share to the LARGEST.

Analysis of the Hump-Shaped Profit Curve
A landowner's share of a harvest is plotted against the hours of free time a worker has per day. The resulting graph is a hump-shaped curve, starting at a zero share for 24 hours of free time, peaking at a maximum share when the worker has 16 hours of free time, and falling back to a zero share when the worker has only 7 hours of free time. The landowner claims, 'To maximize my profit, I must force the worker to work as many hours as possible.' Based on this information, which of the following best evaluates the landowner's claim?
Optimal Work Hours for a Landowner
A landowner's share of a harvest is represented by a hump-shaped curve when plotted against a worker's daily hours of free time. The curve shows that the landowner's share is maximized when the worker has 16 hours of free time and is zero when the worker has only 7 hours of free time. True or False: The reason the landowner's share is zero when the worker has 7 hours of free time is that the worker is no longer producing any harvest at that point.
Explaining the Landowner's Declining Share
A landowner's share of a harvest is plotted against the worker's daily hours of free time. The resulting graph is a hump-shaped curve. The landowner's share is zero when the worker has 24 hours of free time (no work) and also zero when the worker has only 7 hours of free time. The share reaches its maximum when the worker has 16 hours of free time. Based on this information, arrange the following scenarios in order from the SMALLEST landowner's share to the LARGEST.
A landowner's share of a harvest is represented by a hump-shaped curve when plotted against a worker's daily hours of free time. Match each level of the worker's free time to the corresponding outcome for the landowner's share.
A landowner's share of a harvest is represented by a hump-shaped curve when plotted against a worker's daily hours of free time. The share is zero when the worker has 24 hours of free time, rises to a maximum, and then falls back to zero when the worker has only 7 hours of free time. According to this model, the landowner's share is maximized when the worker has ____ hours of free time per day.
A landowner's share of a harvest is represented by a hump-shaped curve when plotted against a worker's daily hours of free time. The landowner's share is maximized when the worker has 16 hours of free time. Currently, the landowner is forcing the worker to work long hours, leaving the worker with only 10 hours of free time per day. If the landowner forces the worker to work even more, reducing the worker's free time to 8 hours per day, what is the most likely effect on the landowner's share of the harvest?
Evaluating Labor Contracts
A landowner's share of a harvest is represented by a hump-shaped curve when plotted against a worker's daily hours of free time. The curve shows that the landowner's share is maximized when the worker has 16 hours of free time and is zero when the worker has only 7 hours of free time. True or False: The reason the landowner's share is zero when the worker has 7 hours of free time is that the worker is no longer producing any harvest at that point.
