Explanation:

We are given that Your boss tell you that she needs a decision by the end of the day about the machine you want to purchase for your new operation .

You have four choices , and your boss reminds you to be cost-efficient as possible but she wants the best  efficiency .

Efficiency of machine  : It tell us how much input energy converted into useful work.

Efficiency of machine= Output energyinput energy

In option 1  machine cost = $5000

The rate of  supplied energy of machine =1900 W

The rate of useful work= 1786 W

Efficiency=

In option 2

Machine cost =$45,00

The rate of  supplied energy of machine= 1450 W

The rate of useful work=1300 W

Efficiency=

In option 3

Machine cost=$14750

The rate of  supplied energy of machine=1950 W

The rate of useful work=1833 W

Efficiency=

In option 4

Machine cost=$4750

The rate of  supplied energy of machine=2000 W

The rate of useful work= 1822 W

Efficiency=

In option 1 and 3 cost are different but the efficiency of machine in option 3  and option  1 is same. But the cost of option 3 is smaller than the cost of machine in option 1. Hence, option 3 is best .

C.option 3

it is stable as it is in group 0 which have full outer shells of electrons
