Answer:
dC=3.5
DC is between 3.475 and 3.525
Step-by-step explanation:
So let dx=1 since the change there is a change in 1 unit.
Find dC/dx by differentiating the expression named C.
dC/dx=0.05x+3
So dC=(0.05x+3) dx
Plug in x=10 and dx=1:
dC=(0.05×10+3)(1)
dC=(0.5+3)
dC=3.5
Let D be the change in cost-the triangle thing.
Since dx=1 we only want the change in unit to be within 1 in difference.
So this means we want it to be from x=9 to x=1] ot from x=10 to x=11.
Let's do from x=9 to x=10 first:
DC=C(10)-C(9)
DC=[0.025×10^2+3×10+4]-[0.025×9^2+3×9+4]
DC=[2.5+30+4]-[0.025×81+27+4]
DC=[36.5]-[2.025+31]
DC=[36.5]-[33.025]
DC=3.475
Now let's do from x=10 to x=11
DC=[0.025×11^2+3×11+4]-[0.025×10^2+3×10+4]
DC=[0.025×121+33+4]-[36.5]
DC=[3.025+37]-[36.5]
DC=[40.025]-[36.5]
DC=3.525
So DC, the change in cost where the change in unit is 1, is between 3.475 and 3.525.
