Answer:

The marginal cost at the given production level is $49.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The marginal cost function is expressed as the first derivative of the total cost function with respect to quantity (x).

We have that the cost function is given by

C(x) = 15000 + 50x + \frac{1000}{x}

So, we need the derivative and then we’ll need to compute the value x = 100 of the derivative.

C'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(15000+50x+\frac{1000}{x}\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\C'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(15000\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(50x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{1000}{x}\right)\\\\C'(x)=0+50-\frac{1000}{x^2}\\\\C'(x)=50-\frac{1000}{x^2}

When x = 100, the marginal cost is

C'(100)=-\frac{1000}{100^2}+50\\\\C'(100)=\frac{499}{10}=49.9

Which could be the function graphed below? ​
iren [92.7K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a)  f(x) = √x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root function has no horizontal shift, so the expression under the radical is simply x with no added terms. There is only one such answer choice, which also shows the necessary translation downward by an added negative constant.

  f(x)=\sqrt{x}-2
