Neoclassical Production and Costs

Assume the following production function:  y = 2x1.5 + 3x2.5

a. Suppose x2 = 16, derive the marginal product schedule for x1­. In which direction is it moving?

b. What returns to scale does the production function show?

c. Consider p1 = $4.00, p2 = $2.00, and x2 = 16; for the specified values of y find out average fixed costs, average total costs, average variable costs, and marginal costs:
