700
Explanation:
The condition for maximizing profits is Marginal cost = Price.
1. We need to calculate the marginal cost, which is the first derivative of the total cost function.
- marginal cost = (TC=10000+0.04q2=) '
2. Now, we equalize the MC to the price and solve for q.
0.08q=56
q=56/0.08
<h2>
q=700</h2>
