(3 marks) A firm produces two goods in quantities x and y. Its cost function is C(x, y) = 10x +
xy + 10y and the prices Px and Py it can charge are, respectively, P = 50 - x + y and
Py = 50 - x + y. The firm is committed to delivering a total of 15 units. How much
should the firm produce of each good to maximize profits?

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
