Suppose a large company makes 25,000 gadgets per year in batches of \(x\) items at a time. After analyzing setup costs to produce each batch and taking into account storage costs, it has been determined that the total cost \(C(x)\) of producing 25,000 gadgets in batches of \(x\) items at a time is given by $$C(x)=1,250,000+\frac{125,000,000}{x}+1.5 x.$$ a. Determine the marginal cost and average cost functions. Graph and interpret these functions. b. Determine the average cost and marginal cost when \(x=5000\). c. The meaning of average cost and marginal cost here is different from earlier examples and exercises. Interpret the meaning of your answer in part (b).
A 500-liter (L) tank is filled with pure water. At time \(t=0,\) a salt solution begins flowing into the tank at a rate of \(5 \mathrm{L} / \mathrm{min} .\) At the same time, the (fully mixed) solution flows out of the tank at a rate of \(5.5 \mathrm{L} / \mathrm{min}\). The mass of salt in grams in the tank at any time \(t \geq 0\) is given by $$M(t)=250(1000-t)\left(1-10^{-30}(1000-t)^{10}\right)$$ and the volume of solution in the tank (in liters) is given by \(V(t)=500-0.5 t\). a. Graph the mass function and verify that \(M(0)=0\). b. Graph the volume function and verify that the tank is empty when \(t=1000\) min. c. The concentration of the salt solution in the tank (in \(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{L}\) ) is given by \(C(t)=M(t) / V(t) .\) Graph the concentration function and comment on its properties. Specifically, what are \(C(0)\) and \(\lim _{\theta \rightarrow 000^{-}} C(t) ?\) \(t \rightarrow 1\) d. Find the rate of change of the mass \(M^{\prime}(t),\) for \(0 \leq t \leq 1000\). e. Find the rate of change of the concentration \(C^{\prime}(t),\) for \(0 \leq t \leq 1000\). f. For what times is the concentration of the solution increasing? Decreasing?
Let \(C(x)\) represent the cost of producing \(x\) items and \(p(x)\) be the sale price per item if \(x\) items are sold. The profit \(P(x)\) of selling x items is \(P(x)=x p(x)-C(x)\) (revenue minus costs). The average profit per item when \(x\) items are sold is \(P(x) / x\) and the marginal profit is dP/dx. The marginal profit approximates the profit obtained by selling one more item given that \(x\) items have already been sold. Consider the following cost functions \(C\) and price functions \(p\). a. Find the profit function \(P\). b. Find the average profit function and marginal profit function. c. Find the average profit and marginal profit if \(x=a\) units are sold. d. Interpret the meaning of the values obtained in part \((c)\). $$C(x)=-0.02 x^{2}+50 x+100, p(x)=100, a=500$$
a. Differentiate both sides of the identity \(\cos 2 t=\cos ^{2} t-\sin ^{2} t\) to prove that \(\sin 2 t=2 \sin t \cos t\). b. Verify that you obtain the same identity for sin \(2 t\) as in part (a) if you differentiate the identity \(\cos 2 t=2 \cos ^{2} t-1\). c. Differentiate both sides of the identity \(\sin 2 t=2 \sin t \cos t\) to prove that \(\cos 2 t=\cos ^{2} t-\sin ^{2} t\).
Prove the following identities and give the values of \(x\) for which they are true. $$\cos \left(\sin ^{-1} x\right)=\sqrt{1-x^{2}}$$
