\frac{dP}{dx}=200-24\sqrt x

P=200x-24.\frac{2}{3}x^{\frac{3}{2}}+ C

P=200x-16x^{\frac{3}{2}}+ C    - (i)

Given if x = 0, P = 4000

\Rightarrow C=4000

Hence (i) becomes

P=200x-16x^{\frac{3}{2}}+ 4000

If\ x=100

P=200(100)-16(10^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}+ 4000

=20000-16000+ 4000

=8000

Hence, (a) is the correct answer.
