An artist can sell 20 copies of a painting at $100 each, but for each additional copy he makes, the value of each painting will go down by a dollar. Thus, if 22 copies are made, each will sell for $98. How many copies should he make to maximize his sales?

40 more paintings in order to maximize sales making a total of 60 paintings

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= no.of copies above 20

Total Sales(x) = (number of copies)(price per copy)

Sales (x)= (20 +x)(100 –x)

Open bracket

=1200-20x+100x-x^2

=1200+80x-x^2

Derivative of the sales

80-2x=0

80=2x

Divide both sides by 2

40=x

Because Sales(x)= –2, this is maximal by the second derivative test

The artist should make 40 more paintings in order to maximize sales making a total of 60 paintings.

step-by-step explanation:

center (1,3) with radius 6

step-by-step explanation:

we must complete the square to find the center and radius of the circle.

first make sure the x and y squared terms have 1 as their coefficients. we also make sure x and y terms together.

we now create space between the x and y terms with parenthesis.

we complete the square by taking the middle terms -2x and the -6y - divide each and square them.

we add the squares to both sides.

simplify.

and write the quadratics in factored form.

the center is (h,k) or (1,3). the radius is the square root of 36 which is 6.
