13. Suppose you have a production technology given by f(x1, x2) = min{2x₁, x2} and you are producing at the point where x₁ = 10 and x₂ = 20. (a) Explain in words what we mean (generally) by the ‘marginal product' of an input in production. (b) For the production technology in this question and the initial point x₁ = 10 and x2 = 20, what is the marginal product of a small increase in input 1? (c) Suppose input 2 increases and you are now at the initial point x₁ = 10 and x2 = 30. Relative to your answer in part (b), does the marginal product of input 1 decrease, increase, or stay constant? Explain briefly.

dien There are two factors in a production function y = x 113 x₂¹1³. The market price of each unit ofy is p=3, and the factor prices are w₁=1 and W₂=2 for x₁ and X₂ respectively. variable (a). Calculate your cost function as a function of y if X, and x₂ are both barible factors. (b). Now derive the functions of average and marginal cost and plot them against quantity (C). Solve for your optional output of y. Calculate the ratio of two factors (X₁/X₂) (d). In the short run the fixed factor is set at X₂=1. What is the new optimal output level now?
Constrained Optimization: Cobb-Douglas Production Function:1. Based from the factor shares of the two inputs, what will happen to the number of output if it the firm decides to triple both the amount of labor and capital?2. State the optimization problem of the firm.3. Solve for the formulas of the Marginal Product of Labor (MPL), and Marginal product ofCapital (MPK)4. Using your knowledge of the tangency condition in Producer’s theory, find the combinationof K and L that the firm should use to produce the maximum possible output. Do not solvethe problem using the Lagrangian method.Note: The tangency conditions just states that the slope of the production function must beequal to the slope of the isocost function.5. What is the maximum possible output that the firm could earn given the constraint it faces?
