[All Steps] A new food is designed to add weight to mature beef cattle. The weight in pounds is given by W=300+36 x y-x^4-y^4, where x is the number of units
Question: A new food is designed to add weight to mature beef cattle. The weight in pounds is given by \(W=300+36 x y-x^{4}-y^{4}\), where \(x\) is the number of units of the first ingredient and \(y\) is the number of units of the second ingredient. How many units of each ingredient will maximize the weight?
