(See Solution) Given that f: R_++^n \rightarrow R, prove that f(x)=(∑_i=1^n α_i x_i+β)/((∑_i=1)^n γ_i x_i+δ)^2, where β,


Question: Given that \(f: R_{++}^{n} \rightarrow R\), prove that

  1. \(f(\mathrm{x})=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n} \alpha_{i} x_{i}+\beta}{\left(\sum_{i=1}^{n} \gamma_{i} x_{i}+\delta\right)^{2}}\), where \(\beta, \delta>0, \alpha, \gamma \in R_{++}^{n}\), is quasi-concave;
  2. \(f(\mathrm{x})=\frac{h(\mathrm{x})}{g(\mathrm{x})}\), where \(h(\mathrm{x})>0\) is concave and \(g(\mathrm{x})>0\) is convex, is quasi-concave; and
  3. \(f(\mathrm{x})=\ln \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n} x_{i}\right)\) is both quasi-concave and quasi-convex.
