At present,a firm is manufacturing $1000$ items. It is estimated that the rate of change of production $P$ with respect to the additional number of workers $x$ is given by $\frac{dP}{dx} = 100 - 12\sqrt{x}$. If the firm employs $9$ more workers,then the new level of production of items is:

  • A
    $1684$
  • B
    $1648$
  • C
    $2116$
  • D
    $1116$
