Answer:

$49.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x^2 + 99x - 932

The maximum point is :

dy/dx = 0

Take the first derivative of y

dy/dx = - 2x + 99

Put - 2x + 99 = 0

-2x = - 99

x = 99 / 2

x = 49.5

Hence, To make maximum profit, widget should be sold at $49.5 per widget.

The area of this square
ANEK [815]

It appears as if 12cm is half the length of the side so we can assume that the total length of one side is 24cm.


The area of a square is given by the equation A=s^{2} where s is the length of the side.  

A=24^{2}

A=576


The area of this square is 576cm2.


Hope this helps!
