Suppose that the daily profit (in dollars) from the production and sale of $x$ units of a product is given by $P = 170x - \frac{x^2}{500} - 2100$. At what rate per day is the profit changing when the number of units produced and sold is 100 and is increasing at a rate of 5 units per day?

Suppose that the daily profit (in dollars) from the production and sale of x units of a product is given by P = 190x - x^2/700 - 1700. At what rate per day is the profit changing when the number of units produced and sold is 100 and is increasing at a rate of 7 units per day?

Suppose that the daily profit (in dollars) from the production and sale of x units of a product is given by the following equation: P = 160x - 1500x + 600 At what rate per day is the profit changing when the number of units produced and sold is 100 and is increasing at a rate of 12 units per day?

The profit from selling units of a product is given by dollars per day when selling 400 units and 500 units. The sales are increasing at a rate of units per day. Find the rate of change of the profit (in dollars per day) when selling 400 units per day and 500 units per day.
