Step-by-step explanation:
Given



So, we have:


Required
The additional trees to be planted for maximum yield
The function is:


Open bracket



Rewrite as:

Differentiate

Equate
to 0 and solve for x to get the maximum of x


Divide by -4

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.
Answer: choice A) 7017
==========================================================
Work Shown:
The first term is a_1 = 24 and we go up by 7 each time.
The common difference is d = 7
The nth term formula we'll use is
a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*d
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
----------
The 1000th term corresponds to n = 1000
Replace every n with 1000
Then use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to simplify
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (1000-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (999)*7
a_1000 = 24 + 6993
a_1000 = 7017
