Manufacturer can sell x items at a price of rupees \[\left( 5 - \frac{x}{100} \right)\] each. The cost price is Rs \[\left( \frac{x}{5} + 500 \right) .\] Find the number of items he should sell to earn maximum profit.

उत्तर
\[\text { Profit =S.P. - C.P.}\]
\[ \Rightarrow P = x\left( 5 - \frac{x}{100} \right) - \left( 500 + \frac{x}{5} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow P = 5x - \frac{x^2}{100} - 500 - \frac{x}{5}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{dP}{dx} = 5 - \frac{x}{50} - \frac{1}{5}\]
\[\text { For maximum or minimum values of P, we must have }\]
\[\frac{dP}{dx} = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow 5 - \frac{x}{50} - \frac{1}{5} = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{24}{5} = \frac{x}{50}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = \frac{24 \times 50}{5}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 240\]
\[\text { Now, }\]
\[\frac{d^2 P}{d x^2} = \frac{- 1}{50} < 0\]
\[\text { So, the profit is maximum if 240 items are sold.}\]
