Answer:

148.64

Explanation:

Assuming that the means of production are uniformly divided for both products, the total production capacity used up for producing 31 units of good X is:

[tex]C_x = \frac{31}{119}=0.2605[/tex]

The capacity remaining for good Y is:

[tex]C_y =1 - C_x = 0.7395[/tex]

The number of units of good Y that can be produced is:

[tex]Y = 0.7395*201=148.64[/tex]

The country is able to produce 148.64 units of good Y.
