Question

Suppose that the total cost (in dollars) for a product is given by  , where x is the number of units produced. Find the marginal cost function. ​

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The marginal cost function is the derivative of the total cost function with respect to x.

We have:

C(x) = 11x^2 + 10x + 5

Taking the derivative, we get:

C'(x) = 22x + 10

Therefore, the marginal cost function is:

MC(x) = 22x + 10
