An Example of a Production Function
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
Also, the geometric relationship between the three short-run curves is illustrated on the left. In particular, you can see the coincidence point of average and marginal product curves at the top left.
