Tiffany's company has the production function Q=2K^0.5L^0.5,
where Q measures output, K measures machine hours, and L measures
labor hours. Let the wage rate be W, and suppose that the rental
rate of capital is R=$20 and the firm wants to produce 400 units of
output. Use the Lagrange method to find the demand curve for labor
as a function of the wage rate. Your answer will have L on the left
hand side of the equation. On the right...
