At present, a firm is manufacturing 2000 items. It is estimated that the rate of change of production P with respect to the additional number of workers x is given by dP over dx space equals space 100 minus 12 square root of straight x. If the firm employs 25 more workers, then
the new level of production of items is

  • 2500

  • 3000

  • 3500

  • 4500

Solution

C.

3500

dP over dx space equals space 100 minus 12 square root of straight x
On space integrating space both space sides comma space we space get
integral subscript 2000 superscript straight P dP space equals space integral subscript 0 superscript 25 left parenthesis 100 minus 12 square root of straight x right parenthesis dx
left parenthesis straight P minus 2000 right parenthesis space equals space 25 space straight x space 100 minus fraction numerator 12 space straight x space 2 over denominator 3 end fraction space left parenthesis 25 right parenthesis to the power of 3 divided by 2 end exponent
straight P space equals space 3500
