    \[P(x)=-5{{x}^{2}}+125x+37500\] is the total profit function of a company, where x is the production of the company.
    What will be the production when the profit is maximum?

    A) 37500

    B) 12.5

    C) -12.5

    D) -37500

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[P\left( x \right)=-5{{x}^{2}}+125x+37500\] \[P'\left( x \right)=-10x+125\] For Critical points \[P'\left( x \right)=0\Rightarrow -10x+125=0\] \[=10x=125\Rightarrow x=12\,.\,5.\]
