- Does the output maximization level of input use exist for the following function? If yes, then what is the exact input-use level? y = x1 + 0.1x12 - 0.05x13 + x2 + 0.1x22 - 0.05x23100VKL, where q is 4. The production function for puffed rice is given by q = the number of boxes produced per hour, K is the number of puffing guns used each hour, and L is the number of workers hired each hour. (a) Calculate the q = 1,000 isoquant for this production function and show it on a graph. (b) If K = 10, how many workers are required to produce q =1,000? What is the average productivity of puffed-rice workers? (c) Suppose technical progress shifts the production function to q = 200 VKL. Answer parts (a) and (b) for this new situation.Let C(T) be a function that models the dependence of the cost (C) in thousands of dollars on the amount of ore to extract from a copper mine measured in tons (T): 1) If you computed the average rate of change of cost with respect to tons for production levels between T = 20000 and T = 40000, give the units of your answer (no calculations - describe the units of the rate of change). 2) If you had a function for C(T) and were able to calculate the answer to part 1, explain why you would not expect your answer to be negative (explanation should be in terms of cost, tons of ore to extract, and rates of change).
