3. Let G be a positive real number; G > 0. Assume that U(t, y) = 1 – ky and V(x, y) = y - ka? be defined for all (x,y) € R. Consider the following maximization problem: Max Ur,y) + V2, y) subject to +y<G (SP) 10, y > 0 Assume that k > 0 and G> (1/k). 1 (a) Under the stated assumption [k > 0 and G > (1/k:)] solve the maximization problem (SP). A complete solution should address only these questions: (1) Write down the Kuhn-Tucker conditions associated with the problem (SP) (2) What are the signs of the variables T, Y and the Lagrange multipliers (make sure you prove your claims made on what the signs would be) (3) Explicitly solve for r, y and all the Lagrange multipliers.
