I need help with the questions and please prove justification. 

3. Consider the Solow growth model with the production function, Y = F(K,L) = Ã × K + Ē × L where Ā>
0 and B > 0. Denote k = K/L. Let à denote the depreciation rate and 5 the saving rate. There exists a
positive steady state (with k>0):
a. Always
b. Never
c. If Ā> B.
d. If d > šĀ.
e. If d < 5
11. Consider the Solow growth model with aggregate production function F(K, L) = ĀK¹/² L¹/². Per capita GDP
at the steady state is y=Y/L=
a. (SÃ/d)².
b. (d/sÃ)².
c. d/sÃ.
20. Consider the Solow growth model where we add government purchases, G. According to the expenditure
approach of GDP, Y=C+I+G. Suppose G = gY, where ģ is a number between 0 and 1. Government
purchases are financed with taxes, T = G. Agents invest a fraction 5 of their disposable income, Y-T.
Formally, I = 5(Y – T). The steady-state capital per worker, k K/L, solves:

Expert Solution
Step 1

Dear Student, as you have posted multiple questions in a single image but as per the guidelines and honor code of bartleby, we are allowed to attempt only 1 question at a time. So kindly post other question separately clearly specifying which you want us to attempt subject to maximum of 1 question at a time.

The solow model is economic model of long run economic growth.Here long run economic growth is explained by looking at capital accumulation,labor,population growth etc.

Please find detailed solution from next step
