उत्तर
Profit function P(x) is given by
P(x) = (150 – x)x – 1625
= 150x – x2 – 1625
∴ P'(x) = `"d"/("d"x)(150 x - x^2 - 1625)`
= 150 × 1 – 2x – 0
= 150 – 2x
and
P"(x) = `"d"/("d"x)(150 - 2x)`
= 0 – 2 × 1
= – 2
Now, P'(x) = 0 gives, 150 – 2x = 0
∴ x = 75
and
P''(75) = – 2 < 0
∴ by the second derivative test, P(x) is maximum when x = 75
Maximum profit = P(75)
= (150 – 75)75 – 1625
= 75 × 75 – 1625
= 4000
Hence, the profit will be maximum, if the manufacturer manufactures 75 items and maximum profit is 4000.

If Mr. Rane order x chairs at the price p = (2x2 - 12x - 192) per chair. How many chairs should he order so that the cost of deal is minimum?
Solution: Let Mr. Rane order x chairs.
Then the total price of x chairs = p·x = (2x2 - 12x- 192)x
= 2x3 - 12x2 - 192x
Let f(x) = 2x3 - 12x2 - 192x
∴ f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`
f'(x ) = 0 gives x = `square` and f''(8) = `square` > 0
∴ f is minimum when x = 8
Hence, Mr. Rane should order 8 chairs for minimum cost of deal.
