Question

Frisbees are produced according to the production function q = 2K+Lwhere q =output of frisbees per hour, K =capital input per hour, L =labor input per hour.

a) If K = 10, how much L is needed to produce 100 frisbees per hour? b) If K = 25, how much L is needed to produce 100 frisbees per hour?

c) Graph the q = 100 isoquant. Indicate the points on that isoquantd defined in part a and part b. What is the RTS along this isoquant? Explain why the RTS is the same at every point on the isoquant.
