QUESTION 5 Let c(w, y) be a cost function, and let A E (0; 1). We have: Oa. q(Aw'+ (1 -A)w", y) > Ac(w; y) = (1 - A)c(w y) Ob.dAw'+ (1 - A)w", y) < Ac(w;, y) + (1 -A)c(w"; y) c. Not enough information Od. c(Aw' + (1 - A)w", y) > Ao(w, y) + (1 -A)c(w", y) QUESTION 6 Suppose cost function c(w1;w2; y) = w1/2w222. The conditional demand for input 1 is: Hints: (Shephard lemma, pg 5-6 in Chapter cost) The conditional demand for input 1, x1(w1,w2,y) = the deri function c(w1,w2,y) with respect to w1. a. (1/2)(w2/w1)y? b. (w2/w1)y? E (1/2) (w2/w1)2 y2 d. (w2/w1)1/22
