Polyoak Containers produces milk cartons that are sold to dairy distributors.  Polyoak has estimated this production function for its milk carton division:             Q = 20L0.6K0.4,                     where Q = output measured in one thousand carton lots, L = labour measured in person hours, and K = capital measured in machine hours.  Polyoak currently pays a wage of R10 per hour and considers the relevant rental price for capital to be R25 per hour. Determine the optimal capital-labour ratio that Polyoak should use in the milk carton division.
