The unknown number canbe replaced with x. So twice a number is 2x and in creased by 3 is +3. so the equation would be 2x + 3= 7 and the unknow number, or x, is 2. 2 times two is 4 plus 3 = 7

The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is c(x) = (3x-2) / (8x+1), find the average cost for eac

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

a) $\frac{74}{10025}$

b) $\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

c) $\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For total cost function $c(x)$ , average cost is given by $\frac{c(x)}{x}$ i.e., total cost divided by number of units produced.

Marginal average cost function refers to derivative of the average cost function i.e., $\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'$

Given: $c(x)=\frac{3x-2}{8x+1}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

At x = 50 units,

$\frac{c(50)}{50}=\frac{150-2}{50(400+1)}=\frac{148}{50(401)}=\frac{74}{10025}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

Marginal average cost:

Differentiate average cost with respect to $x$

Take $f=3x-2\,,\,g=8x^2+x$

using quotient rule, $\left ( \frac{f}{g} \right )'=\frac{f'g-fg'}{g^2}$

Therefore,

$\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'=\left ( \frac{3x-2}{8x^2+x} \right )'\\=\left ( \frac{3(8x^2+x)-(16x+1)(3x-2)}{(8x^2+x)^2} \right )\\=\frac{24x^2+3x-48x^2-3x+32x+2}{(8x^2+x)^2}\\=\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$
