Explanation:
All three terms appear at the first web site:

"Economics 100A: ... slope of the indifference curve ... slope of an isoquant ..."

And the second site explains that the latter two terms are synonymous: "Graphically, we plot the budget line and a production indifference curve
(an isoquant) indicating that CCC can produce no more than 1,000 containers..."

Explanation:
O texto será matemática ou economia?
Aqui realmente a palavra "produção" parece ser "production" de artigos e não a multiplicação matemática anterior.
Isoquantas é claro = quantidades iguais.


    S� lendo o texto todo, para ver o sentido, � in�til ficar pegando frases de dicion�rios .
    A coisa vira colcha de retalhos.
