5 A trading company deals in two goods. The formula used to estimate \(z\), the total weekly cost to the company of trading the two goods, in tens of thousands of pounds, is
\(z = 0.9 x + \frac { 0.096 y } { x } - x ^ { 2 } y ^ { 2 }\),
where \(x\) and \(y\) are the masses, in thousands of tonnes, of the two goods. You are given that \(x > 0\) and \(y > 0\).

1. In the first week of trading, it was found that the values of \(x\) and \(y\) corresponded to the stationary value of \(z\). Determine the total cost to the company for this week.
2. For the second week, the company intends to make a small change in either \(x\) or \(y\) in order to reduce the total weekly cost. Determine whether the company should change \(x\) or \(y\). (You are not expected to say by how much the company should reduce its costs.)
