Question
Using differentials, find the approximate values of the following:
$\log_\text{e}4.04,$ it being given that $\log_{{10}^{4}}=0.6021$ and $\log_{10}\text{e}=0.4343$
✓

Answer

Consider the function  $\text{y}=\text{f}(\text{x})\log_\text {e}\text{x}.$Let:
x = 4 $\text{x}+\triangle \text{x}=4.04$Then,
$\triangle\text{x} =0.04$ For x = 4 $\text{y}=\log_\text {e}4=\frac{\log_{10}4}{\log_{10}\text {e}}=\frac{0.6021}{0.4343}=1.386368$ Let:
$\text{dx}=\triangle \text{x}=0.04$Now, $\text{y}=\log_\text {e}\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\frac {\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{\text {x}}$ $\Rightarrow\Big(\frac {\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}=4} =\frac{1}{4}$ $\therefore\triangle \text{y}=\text{dy}=\frac{\text{dy}} {\text{dx}}\text{dx}=\frac{1} {4}\times0.04=0.01$ $\Rightarrow\triangle \text{y}=0.01$ $\therefore\log_\text {e}4.04=\text{y}+\triangle\text{y} =1.39638$

A company produces two types of leather belts, say type $A$ and $B.$ Belt $A$ is a superior quality and belt $B$ is of a lower quality. Profits on each type of belt are $Rs. 2$ and $Rs. 1.50$ per belt, respectively. Each belt of type $A$ requires twice as much time as required by a belt of type $B.$ If all belts were of type $B,$ the company could produce $1000$ belts per day. But the supply of leather is sufficient only for $800$ belts per day $($both $A$ and $B$ combined$).$ Belt $A$ requires a fancy buckle and only $400$ fancy buckles are available for this per day. For belt of type $B,$ only $700$ buckles are available per day.
How should the company manufacture the two types of belts in order to have a maximum overall profit?

A dealer in rural area wishes to purchase a number of sewing machines. He has only ₹ 5,760 to invest and has space for at most 20 items for storage. An electronic sewing machine costs him ₹ 360 and a manually operated sewing machine ₹ 240. He can sell the sewing machine at a profit of ₹ 22 and a manually operated sewing machine at a profit of ₹ 18. Assuming that he can sell all the items that he can buy, how should he invest his money in order to maximize his profit? Make it as an LPP and solve it graphically.
