Techniques for Finding Derivatives
Marginal cost is Select one: a. the change in cost caused by a change in price b. the change in cost caused by a change in output, derived by dividing the change in total cost by the change in quantity of output. c. Total cost - Total Variable cost d. none of the above

Average and marginal cost Consider the following cost functions. a. Find the average cost and marginal cost functions. b. Determine the average cost and the marginal cost when $x=a$. c. Interpret the values obtained in part (b). $$C(x)=500+0.02 x, 0 \leq x \leq 2000, a=1000$$
