Anastasy [175]

Answer: 19.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Profit is given in terms of the selling price

$y=-5x^2+194x-900$

to get the maximum price, differentiate y w.r.t x

$\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=-5\times 2x+194$

Put $\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=0$ to get maximum value

$10x=194\\x=19.4$

Thus, the company must sell it at 19.4
