Question:

Suppose the daily output Q of a factory depends on the amount K of capital investment and on the size L of the labor force. A law of diminishing returns states that in certain circumstances, there is a value L0 such that the marginal product of labor will be increasing for L < L0 and decreasing for L > L0.

Translate this law of diminishing returns into statements about the sign of a certain second order partial derivative.
