![Consider the Cobb-Douglas utility function u(x,y)-ґуг. Let the budget constraint be pPy-I, where pa,Py are the prices and I denotes the (a) Write the Lagrangian for this utility maximization problem (b) Solve the first-order conditions to find the demand functions for both good r and good y. [Hint: Your results should only depend on the pa- rameters p, Py, I.] (c) In the optimal consumption bundle, how much money is spend on r? How much on y? Express your answer in proportion of the total income I. (d) OPTIONAL: Check the second order conditions.](https://homework-api-assets-production.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/uploads/store/984187631/16040310340d901c67bc094af1108dc42d42dbe94d.png)
