Answer

given,

apple tree in orchard = 30

yield of apple =  450 apples

yield reduced per tree = 8 apples

number of trees added be x

trees added to maximize the yield = ?

total yield = (30 + x)(400 - 8 x )

T = 12000- 240 x  + 400 x - 8 x²

T = - 8 x² + 160 x + 12000

max will occur when

x = \dfrac{-b}{2a}

x = \dfrac{-160}{2(-8)}

x = 10 (to be added)

maximum yields =  - 8 (10²) + 160 x 10 + 12000

                             = 12800 apple

maximum yield of the orchard is 12800 apple
