(2) Assume that we have a Cobb-Douglas production function for a certain industry: Q = CL°K®, where c is a constant, and L and K represent labor input and capital input, respectively. Assume that the production is fixed at Q Qo, and at this fixed level of production, K is a function of L defined by Qo = CL°K%. Use the implicit differentiation rule to find the "rate of substitution of capital for labor", which is measured by 8K/ƏL when the production is fixed at Q = Qo (show the necessary steps).
