The ticket office at Orchestra Center estimates that if it charges x dollars for box seats for a concert, it will sell 50 - x box seats. The function S = 50x - x2 gives the estimated income from the sale of box seats. Graph the function, and use the graph to find the price for box seats that will give the greatest income.

S=50x-x^2

dS/dx=50-2x

d2S/dx2=-2

Since acceleration is a constant negative, when velocity equals zero, it is at the absolute maximum point for S(x)...

dS/dx=0 only when 50-2x=0, 2x=50, x=25

So the price that will maximize income is $25.00 a seat.

And that maximum income is:

S(25)=50x-x^2

S(25)=$625.00

Answer:

$25 per box seat
