by finding the partial derivatives of the utility function. 1.1.2 Example: testing for convexity with a Cobb-Douglas utility function A Cobb-Douglas utility function has the form u(x1 ‚ x2 ) = xa xb where a > 0 and b > 0. Here u(x1 ‚ x2 ) = 12 2/5 3/5 x1 x2 . Assuming that x1 > 0 and x2 > 0 the partial derivatives are ∂u ∂x1 ∂u ∂x2 = = 2 −3/5 3/5 x2 > 0 x 51 3 2/5 −2/5 > 0. xx 51 2 (1) (2) You should note that because the partial derivatives are both strictly1 positive
