Question 1118640
.
<pre>
To solve the problem, you need to find the maximum of the quadratic function 


C(x) = {{{800 - 30x + 0.75x^2}}}.


The maximum of the quadratic function


q(x) = {{{ax^2 + bx + c}}}


with positive coefficient "a" is achieved at  x = {{{-b/(2a)}}}.


In your case  b = -30,  a = 0.75,  therefore the maximum is achieved at


x = {{{-(-30)/0.75}}} = {{{30/0.75}}} = 40.

Solved.
