    1 2 This implies that the CES function exhibits constant returns to scale and hence has an elasticity of scale of 1. 1.6 This is half true: if g (x) > 0‚ then the function must be strictly increasing‚ but the converse is not true. Consider‚ for example‚ the function g(x) = x3 . This is strictly increasing‚ but g (0) = 0. 1.7 Let f(x) = g(h(x)) and suppose that g(h(x)) = g(h(x )).
