(1) q=35L + 40K (2) q=L.5K.5 a) For the production functions of (1) and (2) create the isoquants for q = 100, and for q = 144 with K on the vertical axis and L on the horizontal axis. (Use excel's scatter plot to draw these pictures. So, two pictures with two isoquants each.) b) Suppose that K is fixed at K = 9. Using excel draw the total product curves for equation (1). In a separate excel chart draw the marginal product and average product for K = 9 in equation (1). Give an explanation for the shapes of the total product, marginal product, and average product curve.
