Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(7\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \text 2 x+3 y=50 \\ & P=x^2 y^3 \text { (given) } \\ & \Rightarrow P=x^2\left(\frac{50-2 x}{3}\right)^3 \Rightarrow P=\frac{1}{27} x^2(50-2 x)^3 \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{d P}{d x}=\frac{1}{27}\left[x^2 \cdot 3(50-2 x)^2(-2)+2 x \cdot(50-2 x)^3\right] \\ & \text {…
