Production Let x represent the units of labor and y the capital invested in a manufacturing process. When 135,540 units are produced, the relationship between labor and capital can be modeled by
(a) Find the rate of change of y with respect to x when 1500 and y = 1000.
(b) The model used in this problem is called the Cobb-Douglas production function. Graph the model on a graphing utility and describe the relationship between labor and capital.
