If x^y = e^ x –y , show that dy dx = log x log(x e) ^ 2 . - Vidyadip

Question

If $x^y = e^{x –y},$ show that $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{log x}}{\left\{\text{log(x e)}\right\}^{2}}.$

✓

Answer

$x^y = e^{x–y}$
$\Rightarrow y . \log x = (x – y) \log e = x – y$
$\text{y}=\frac{\text{x}}{\text{1 + log x}}$
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{(1 + log x)}\cdot\text{1 - x}\cdot\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)}{\text{(1 + log x)}^{2}}=\frac{\text{log x}}{\text{(1 + log x)}^{2}}$
$=\frac{\log\text{x}}{\text{(log e + log x)}^{2}}=\frac{\text{log x}}{\text{[log(xe)]}^{2}}$.

A factory makes tennis rackets and cricket bats. A tennis racket takes $1.5$ hours of machine time and $3$ hours of craftman's time in its making while a cricket bat takes $3$ hours of machine time and $1$ hour of craftman's time. In a day, the factory has the availability of not more than $42$ hours of machine time and $24$ hours of craftman's time. If the profit on a racket and on a bat is $Rs. 20$ and $Rs. 10$ respectively, find the number of tennis rackets and cricket bats that the factory must manufacture to earn the maximum profit.
