Step 1
In this case, the production function is Q = 3K + 4L. The coefficient of K (capital) in the production function is the marginal product of capital. Show more…

If the production function is $q=A(L, K)$ $=5 L+4 K,$ and capital is fixed at $\bar{R}=500,$ what is the short-run production function? What is the marginal product of labor? (Hint: See Solved Prob$\operatorname{lem} 6.1 .)$

Short-Run Production
Suppose the production function is Q = min{K, 2L}. How much output is produced when 4 units of labor and 9 units of capital are employed?

If c is the average cost of producing units of product, find the marginal-cost function and the marginal cost for the given values of q: c = 4500/q For q = 450, the marginal cost is c = 4500/450 = 10 For q = 900, the marginal cost is c = 4500/900 = 5
