Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as there are some signs are omitted there. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

1. If the total cost function for a product is C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)^3 dollars, where x represents the number of hundreds of units produced, producing how many units will minimize average cost?

2. A firm can produce only 3900 units per month. The monthly total cost is given by C(x) = 500 + 200x dollars, where x is the number produced. If the total venue is given by R(x) = 450x-1/100x^2 dollars, how many items, x, should the firm produce for maximum profit?

3. If the profit function for a product is P(x) = 3600x + 60x2 - x3 - 72,000 dollars, selling how many items, x, will produce a maximum profit?

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

1. If the total cost function for a product is C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)3 dollars, where x represents the number of hundreds of units produced, producing how many units will minimize average cost?

Given;

C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)^3 ……………………………………….. (1)

We first simplify (0.02x + 6)^3 as follows:

(0.02x + 6)^3 = (0.02x + 6)(0.02x + 6)(0.02x + 6)

First, we have:

(0.02x + 6)(0.02x + 6) = 0.004x^2 + 0.12x + 0.12x + 36 = 0.004x^2 + 0.24x + 36

Second, we have:

(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.004x^2 + 0.24x + 36(0.02x + 6)

(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.00008x^3 + 0.048x^2 + 7.20x + 0.0024x^2 + 1.44x + 216

(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.00008x^3 + 0.048x^2 + 0.0024x^2 + 7.20x + 1.44x + 216

(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.00008x^3 + 0.0504x^2 + 8.64x + 216

Therefore, we have:

C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)^3 = 200(0.00008x^3 + 0.0504x^2 + 8.64x + 216)

C(x) = 0.016x^3 + 10.08x^2 + 1,728x + 43,200

Therefore, the average cost (AC) can be calculated as follows:

AC(x) = C(x) / x = (0.016x^3 + 10.08x^2 + 1,728x + 43,200) / x

AC(x) = (0.016x^3 + 10.08x^2 + 1,728x + 43,200)x^(-1)

AC(x) = 0.016x^2 + 10.08x + 1,728 + 43,200x^(-1) …………………………. (2)

Taking the derivative of equation (2) with respect to x, equating to 0 and solve for x, we have:

0.032x + 10.08 - (43,300 / x^2) = 0

0.032x + 10.08 = 43,300 / x^2

X^2 * 0.32x = 43,300 – 10.08

0.32x^3 = 43,189.92

x^3 = 43,189.92 / 0.32

x^3 = 134,968.50

x = 134,968.50^(1/3)

x = 51.30

Since it is stated in the question that x represents the number of hundreds of units produced, we simply multiply by 100 as follows:

x = 51.30 * 100 = 5,130

Therefore, the number of units which will minimize average cost is approximately 5,130 units.

2. A firm can produce only 3900 units per month. The monthly total cost is given by C(x) = 500 + 200x dollars, where x is the number produced. If the total revenue is given by R(x) = 450x-1/100x^2 dollars, how many items, x, should the firm produce for maximum profit?

P(x) = R(x) - C(x) ……………. (3)

Where;

P(x) = Profit = ?

R(x) = 450x-1/100x^2

C(x) = 500 + 200x

Substituting the equations into equation (3), we have:

P(x) = 450x - 1/100x^2 - (500 + 200x)

P(x) = 450x - 0.01x^2 - 500 - 200x

P(x) = 450x - 200x - 0.01x^2 - 500

P(x) = 250x - 0.01x^2 – 500 …………………………………. (4)

Taking the derivative of equation (4) with respect to x, equating to 0 and solve for x, we have:

250 - 0.02x = 0

250 = 0.02x

x = 250 / 0.02

x = 12,500 items

Therefore, the firm should produce 12,500 items, x, for maximum profit.

3. If the profit function for a product is P(x) = 3600x + 60x2 – x^3 - 72,000 dollars, selling how many items, x, will produce a maximum profit?

Given;

P(x) = 3600x + 60x2 – x^3 - 72,000 …………………………. (5)

Taking the derivative of equation (5) with respect to x, equating to 0 and solve for x, we have:

3600 + 120x - 3x^2 = 0

Divide through by 3, we have:

1200 + 40x – x^2 = 0

1200 + 60x – 20x – x^2 = 0

60(20 + x) – x(20 + x) = 0

(60 – x)(20 + x) = 0

Therefore,

x = 60, or x = - 20

The negative value of x (i.e. x = - 20) will be will be ignored because it has no economic significance. Therefore, the number of items, x, that will produce a maximum profit is 60 items.

answer: 2 answers

step-by-step explanation: the first one means to spread the product throughout the marketplace such that a large number of people can buy it.  

the second means the process of making a product or service available for the consumer or business user that needs it.
