They would have to increase it by 5$ so that they can maximize their weekly profit!

Answer:

To have maximum profit, the price must be increased by 5,

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the price increase function is:

f(x) = -2x² + 20x + 150,

For maximum profit, then f(x) = 0.

Putting f(x) = 0, we have

-2x² + 20x + 150 = 0

Or

x² - 10x - 75 = 0

(x + 5)(x - 15) = 0

x = -5

Or

x = 15

Again, differentiating f(x) and equating to zero, we have

-4x + 20 = 0

4x = 20

x = 20/4

= 5

To have maximum profit, the price must be increased by 5,

Please any help is necessary
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Option D. 50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the figure is equal to the area of three rectangles

so

A=18x+(48-36)(32-11)+(18)(32)

A=18x+(12)(21)+(18)(32)\\A=18x+828

Remember that the area is given

A= 1,728\ ft^2

so

18x+828=1,728

solve for x

18x=1,728-828\\18x=900\\x=50\ ft
