here are 50 apple trees in an orchard. Each tree produces 800 apples. For each additional tree planted in the orchard, the output per additional tree drops by 10 apples. Number of trees that should be added to the existing orchard for maximising the output of the trees is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Apples=(50+x)(800-10x)
=`40000-10x^2-500x+800x`
`=40000+300x-10x^2`
`(dA)/(dx)=0=300-20x=0`
`x=300/20=15`
A=40000+300*15-10*225=42250.
