A company manufactures two products, X and Y, and the joint-cost function for these products is given by c = 0.002(x+y)²+x+0.25y + 8000, where c is the total cost of producing x units of X and y units of Y. Determine the marginal cost with respect to x when x = 450 and y= 550.

Marginal cost Consider the following marginal cost functions. a. Find the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 100 units to 150 units. b. Find the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 500 units to 550 units. $$C^{\prime}(x)=2000-0.5 x$$
