Output is a function of inputs x1 and x2: y = x₁ 1/4 x2 1/2. Total cost is a function of inputs x₁ and x2 and their corresponding prices, w1-3 and w2=6: c = 3x1+6x2. The price at which output can be sold is p = 6. What is the profit maximizing level of x1 for the firm to use in the long run? [Hint: set up the profit function, take partial derivatives. Solve for x1 or x2, then substitute back into original profit function. Now you will have a one variable optimization problem.] 1/4
