Suppose the production function for T-shirts can be represented as q = L0.25 K0.75. Show that the isoquants for this function are convex

What will be an ideal response?

The slope of the isoquant is -MPL/MPK = -K/3L. As L increases and K decreases, this value becomes absolutely smaller, implying a flatter slope.
