Maximum profit: A chain store manager ha been told by the main office that daily profit, P, is related to the number of clerks working that day, x, according to the function P=-25^2 + 300x. What number of clerks will maximize the profit. and what is the maximum possible profit?
Answer provided by our tutors
if the profit is the function
p(x) = - 25^2 + 300x, where x is the number of clerks
the more clerks work the bigger the profit so
the maximum number of clerks allowed will maximize the profit
if x -> infinity the maximum possible profit will p(x) -> infinity.
