a b and c please

firm's production function is F(K, L) = 2√K + L. Factor prices are r = 2 and
(4)
w = 3.
(a) Find an Expressions for MPL, MPK, and MRT SLK.
(b) What sort of returns to scale does this production function have?
(c) Show that the firm's LR total cost function is CLR(q) =q². (Hint: Find LR Factor Demands
first.)
(d) Show that when K = 4,
CSR(q)
=
~
8
q² - 4 if q ≥ 4
if q ≤ 4
(e) Write out expressions for SR AC and mc. (Be sure to take account of the kink in the expression
for CSR.)
