An electronic company’s profit from selling x thousands of one product and y thousands of another is given by the formula in units of thousands of dollars:
P(x,y)=−2x2 +5xy−4y2 +7x+7y+200.
• Show that the profit P is maximized only at the point (x, y) =
(13, 9) and determine the maximum profit.
• Using an appropriate differential determine approximately the profit lost if x is only 12.7 and y only 8.6.
