Answer:  

Here, the given function,

S(x) = 50 x - x ^2 ----- (1)

For the maximum value of s(x),

s'(x) = 0

Where s'(x) is the first derivative of S(x)

By differetiating equation (1) with respect to x,

We get,

S'(x)= 50 - 2x

⇒ For maximum value of S(x), s'(x) = 0

⇒  50 - 2x = 0

⇒ 2x = 50

⇒ x = $ 25

To estimate the price of box seats for the ticket office to have the greatest income, we derive the equation and equate the derivative to zero. 
                                    S = 50x - x²
Deriving,
                                dS = 50 - 2x = 0
The value of zero from the generated equation is 25. Thus, the company should sell tickets at approximately $25.

Determine the value of x in this polygon.
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

<h2>x = 23.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

It's the trapezoid.

We know: the sum of the angle measures at one leg of a trapezoid is 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

(x+12.5)+(6x+3)=180    <em>combine like terms</em>

(x+6x)+(12.5+3)=180

7x+15.5=180         <em>subtract 15.5 from both sides</em>

7x=164.5   <em>divide both sides by 7</em>

x=23.5
