Question:

In Example 1, the maximum production is obtained when 2y = x no matter what the budget is. Assume the current values for x and y are those that maximize production.
(a) If you increase x by 3000, by how much should you increase y if production is to remain maximal?
(b) If you double x, how should you change y for production to remain maximal?
(c) If you increase x by 5%, by what percent should you change y for production to remain maximal?
