13. The Cobb-Douglas production function for a product is given by P(L, K) 912/K1 where L is the number of units of labor and K is the number of units of capital. Each unit of labor costs S40 while each unit of capital costs $120. If S360, 000 is budgeted for the production of this product, what are the values of L and K that maximize production?
