A local nursery sells a large number of ornamental trees every year. The owners have determined the cost per tree C for buying and caring for each tree before it is sold is

C = 0.001n² − 0.3n + 50. In this function, C is the cost per tree in dollars and n is the number of trees in stock. How many trees will minimize the cost per tree? (hint: find the vertex)

• 180

• 150

• 100

• -150
