Suppose that the total number of units produced by a worker in t hours of an 8-hour shift can be modeled by the following production function.
P(t) = 135t + 9t2 − 3t3
(a) Find the number of hours before production is
maximized.
t = hr
(b) Find the number of hours before the rate of production is
maximized. That is, find the point of diminishing returns.
t = hr

The management of a factory finds that the maximum number of
units a worker can produce in a day is 30. The learning curve for
the number of units N produced per day after a new employee has
worked for t days is modeled by N = 30 1 − ekt . After 19 days on
the job, a worker is producing 18 units in a day. How many days
should pass before this worker is producing 25 units per...
