technology generated by a production function f(x) = x2 . The production set is Y = {(y‚ −x) : y ≤ x2 } which is certainly not convex‚ but the input re√ quirement set is V (y) = {x : x ≥ y} which is a convex set. 1.2 It doesn’t change. 1.3 1 = a and 2 = b. 1.4 Let y(t) = f(tx). Then dy = dt so that 1 dy 1 = y dt f(x) 1.5 Substitute txi for i = 1‚ 2 to get f(tx1 ‚ tx2 ) = [(tx1 )ρ + (tx2 )ρ ] ρ = t[xρ + xρ ] ρ = tf(x1 ‚ x2 ). 1 2 This implies that the CES function exhibits constant returns to

LOGARITHMIC AND EXPONENTIAL FUNCTIONS Inverse relations Exponential functions Exponential and logarithmic equations One logarithm THE LOGARITHMIC FUNCTION WITH BASE b is the function y = logb x. b is normally a number greater than 1 (although it need only be greater than 0 and not equal to 1). The function is defined for all x > 0. Here is its graph for any base b. Note the following: • For any base‚ the x-intercept is 1. Why? To see the answer‚ pass your mouse over the colored

problem is one that seeks to maximize an objective function subject to constraints. If both the objective function and the constraints are linear‚ the problem is referred to as a linear programming problem. 2. Linear functions are functions in which each variable appears in a separate term raised to the first power and is multiplied by a constant (which could be 0). 3. Linear constraints are linear functions that are restricted to be "less than or equal to"‚
