What is the measurement of angle 2?
Alchen [17]
A straight line has an angle of 180. A right angle has an angle of 90. Angle 3 is the same as angle 80°, 6, and 8. Angle 2 is the same as angle 4, 5, and 7. All you have to do is subtract the angle you know from 180, and what will be left off is Angle 3.
Then you find out what angles are the same and you have your answer.

Given P = x^0.3 y^0.7 is the chicken lay eggs production function, where P is the number of eggs lay, x is the number of workers
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Part A)

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{3}{7}P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{10}{7}}

Part B)

The daily operating cost decreases by about $143 per extra worker.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

\displaystyle P=x^{\frac{3}{10}}y^{\frac{7}{10}}

Where <em>P</em> is the number of eggs laid, <em>x</em> is the number of workers, and <em>y</em> is the daily operating budget (assuming in US dollars $).

A)

We want to find dy/dx.

So, let’s find our equation in terms of <em>x</em>. We can raise both sides to 10/7. Hence:

\displaystyle P^\frac{10}{7}=\Big(x^\frac{3}{10}y^\frac{7}{10}\Big)^\frac{10}{7}

Simplify:

\displaystyle P^\frac{10}{7}=x^\frac{3}{7}y

Divide both sides by<em> </em>the <em>x</em> term to acquire:

\displaystyle y=P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{3}{7}}

Take the derivative of both sides with respect to <em>x: </em>

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}\Big[P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{3}{7}}\Big]

Apply power rule. Note that P is simply a constant. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=P^\frac{10}{7}(-\frac{3}{7})(x^{-\frac{10}{7}})

Simplify. Hence, our derivative is:

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{3}{7}P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{10}{7}}

Part B)

We want to evaluate the derivative when <em>x</em> is 30 and when <em>y</em> is $10,000.

First, we will need to find <em>P</em>. Our original equations tells us that:

P=x^{0.3}y^{0.7}

Hence, at <em>x</em> = 30 and at <em>y</em> = 10,000, <em>P </em>is:

P=(30)^{0.3}(10000)^{0.7}

Therefore, for our derivative, we will have:

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{3}{7}\Big(30^{0.3}(10000^{0.7})\Big)^\frac{10}{7}\Big(30^{-\frac{10}{7}}\Big)

Use a calculator. So:

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{1000}{7}=-142.857142...\approx-143

Our derivative is given by dy/dx. So, it represents the change in the daily operating cost over the change in the number of workers.

So, when there are 30 workers with a daily operating cost of $10,000 producing a total of about 1750 eggs, the daily operating cost decreases by about $143 per extra worker.
