    The number of hours that the firm use to work on the product during the second month is

    B. 303.9 hours

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given;

    Time taken to complete the first unit of product = T1

    T1 = 80 hours

    Time taken to complete the first n unit of product = Tn

    Learning factor = 75%

    Learning curve coefficient for total time = C

    Therefore, Tn is given as

    Tn = T1 (C)

    Time taken to work on the product for the second month T * = (T22 - T10)

    T22 = T1 (C22)

    T10 = T1 (C10)

    T * = T22-T10 = T1 (C22 - C10)

    T * = 80 (9.388 - 5.589)

    T * = 303.9096

    T * = 303.9 hours
