Suppose the labor cost (in dollars) for manufacturing a camera can be approximated by 3 L(x,y) = x² + y²-7x-2y-2xy + 109 where x is the number of hours required by a skilled craftsperson and y is the number of hours required by a semiskilled person. Find values of x and y that minimize the labor cost. Find the minimum labor cost. Labor cost will be minimized when x= and y=-
