The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is C(x) = (3x-1)/(8x+7). Find the average cost for each of the following production levels. a. 30 units b. x units c. Find the marginal average cost function. The average cost for 30 units is $ per unit. (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) The average cost for x units is hundred dollars per unit. The marginal average cost function is C '(x) =

The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is C(x) = (4x - 1) / (2x + 3). Find the average cost for each of the following production levels: a. 10 units b. x units c. Find the marginal average cost function. The average cost for 10 units is $ per unit. (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) The average cost for x units is hundred dollars per unit. The marginal average cost function is C̄'(x) =

The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is C(x) = (5x - 8) / (3x + 7). Find the average cost for each of the following production levels. a. 15 units b. x units c. Find the marginal average cost function. The average cost for 15 units is $1.29 per unit. (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) The average cost for x units is (5x - 8) / (x(3x + 7)) hundred dollars per unit. The marginal average cost function is C'(x) = 59 / (3x + 7)^2.

If $C(x)$ is the cost of producing $x$ units of a commodity, then the average cost per unit is $c(x)=C(x) / x .$ The marginal cost is the rate of change of the cost with respect to the number of items produced, that is, the derivative $C^{\prime}(x)$ (a) Show that if the average cost is a minimum, then the marginal cost equals the average cost. (b) If $C(x)=16,000+200 x+4 x^{3 / 2},$ in dollars, find (i) the cost, average cost, and marginal cost at a production level of 1000 units; (ii) the production level that will minimize the average cost; and (iii) the minimum average cost.
