Dalco manufacturing estimates that its weekly profit, p, in hundreds of dollars, can be approximated by the formula p= -2x^2 + 8x + 2, where x is the number of units produced per week, in thousands.
a.how many units should the company produce per week to earn the maximum profit?
b.find the maximum weekly profit

P = -2x^2 + 8x + 2
for maximum P, dP/dx = 0
dP/dx = -4x + 8 = 0
4x = 8
x = 2

The company should produce 2,000 units per week to earn maximum profit.

Maximum profit = -2(2)^2 + 8(2) + 2 = -8 + 16 + 2 = 10

Therefore, the maximum weekly profit is $1,000.

x=2000 and max profit =10,000 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Dalco Manufacturing estimates that its weekly profit, P, in hundreds of dollars, can be approximated by the formula

,

where x is the number of units produced per week, in thousands

We can use derivative test for finding the maximum profit

Let us differentiate P with respect to x two times

Actual units = 2000

a) 2 units should be produced per week to get maximum profit

b) Maximum profit =

Maximum profit actual =10000 dollars.
