Consider the following cost function.
a. Find the average cost and marginal cost functions.
b. Determine the average and marginal cost when x = a.
c. Interpret the values obtained in part (b).
C(x) = 0.05x^3 + 0.6x^2 + 60x + 110, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1500, a = 400
a. The average cost function is C̄(x) = │ │.
The marginal cost is function is C'(x) = │ │.
b. The average cost when x = a is $ │ │. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
The marginal cost when x = a is $ │ │. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
c. Choose the correct interpretation of the average cost when x = a.
A. The cost of producing the 401st item is about $1,854.00.
B. The average cost per item is about $8,300.28 when 400 items are produced.
C. The cost of producing 400 items is about $7,000.28.
D. The cost of producing the 401st item is about $24,540.00.
Choose the correct interpretation of the marginal cost when x = a.
A. The cost of producing the 401st item is about $24,540.00.
B. The cost of producing 401 items is about $654.00.
C. The average cost per item is about $8,300.28 when 400 items are produced.
D. The cost of producing 400 items is about $7,000.28.
