A firm produces output according to the following production function: q = 2 L1/2 + 4 K1/2 The price of labor is w = 20, the price of capital is r = 20 and there is a set-up cost F = 1,000 that the firm only pays if it decides to produce in the market. If the firm wants to produce ‘q’ units of output, solve the cost minimization problem. Obtain total cost C* (as a function of output level q). The firm is operating within a perfectly competitive industry. Use the solution to the cost minimization problem to solve the profit maximization problem of this firm for a given price p. Then, knowing that the firm is producing 80 units at maximum profit, do the following: Determine the firm’s profit.

Refer to Figure 5. Your patient is a gymnast who has been experiencing some leg pain after practicing the splits. You suspect one of their muscles is injured, so you work with them to stretch their leg in different directions. Your patient reports pain in their pelvic and proximal femoral region when flexing but not extending their thigh at the hip. They are also feeling pain when they bend laterally at the waist but not medially. Finally, your patient also reports they have no pain or discomfort when flexing or extending their knee. Which muscle is likely injured in your patient? [a] What is the number from the figure for this muscle? [b]
