Answer:

The actual cost incurred in manufacturing:

  • the 111st oven is $114.07
  • the 221st oven is 122.71
  • the 311st oven is $140.59

The marginal cost when x = 110, 220, and 310 is

C'(110)=\$114.06

C'(220)=\$122.64

C'(310)=\$140.46

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the daily cost function of producing microwave ovens is given by

C(x)=0.0002x^3 - 0.06x^2 + 120x + 5000

(a) The actual cost incurred in manufacturing the 111st oven is the difference between the total cost incurred in manufacturing the first 111 ovens and the total cost of manufacturing the first 110 ovens:

C(111)-C(110)=[0.0002(111)^3 - 0.06(111)^2 + 120(111) + 5000]-[0.0002(110)^3 - 0.06(110)^2 + 120(110) + 5000]\\\\C(111)-C(110)=17854.27-17740.2\\\\C(111)-C(110)=114.07

For the 221st

C(221)-C(220)=[0.0002(221)^3 - 0.06(221)^2 + 120(221) + 5000]-[0.0002(220)^3 - 0.06(220)^2 + 120(220) + 5000]\\\\C(221)-C(220)=30748.31-30625.6\\\\C(221)-C(220)=122.71

For the 311st

C(311)-C(310)=[0.0002(311)^3 - 0.06(311)^2 + 120(311) + 5000]-[0.0002(310)^3 - 0.06(310)^2 + 120(310) + 5000]\\\\C(311)-C(310)=42532.79-42392.2\\\\C(311)-C(310)=140.59

(b) If C(x) is a total cost function, then the marginal cost function is defined to be its derivative C'(x).

We need to find the derivative of the total cost function:

\frac{d}{dx}C(x)=\frac{d}{dx}(0.0002x^3 - 0.06x^2 + 120x + 5000)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\\frac{d}{dx}C(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(0.0002x^3\right)-\frac{d}{dx}\left(0.06x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(120x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(5000\right)\\\\C'(x)=0.0006x^2-0.12x+120

The marginal cost when x = 110, 220, and 310 is given by

C'(110)=0.0006(110)^2-0.12(110)+120\\C'(110)=114.06

C'(220)=0.0006(220)^2-0.12(220)+120\\C'(220)=122.64

C'(310)=0.0006(310)^2-0.12(310)+120\\C'(310)=140.46

A truck that can carry no more than 7100 lb is being used to transport refrigerators and upright pianos. Each refrigerator weigh
pishuonlain [190]

Let x be the number of refrigerators

Y be the number of pianos

So the inequality:

300x + 475y < 7100

So substitute 12 and 8 to the inequality

300(12) + 475(8) < 7100

3600 + 3800 < 7100

7400 < 7100 is not true

So it will overload the truck

kogti [31]

Answer:

y-b/m = x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

~Subtract b to both sides

y - b = mx

~Divide m to both sides

y-b/m = x
