C(x)=100+3x^2+4x . marginal cost at x=5 C(x)=100+3x^2+4x . marginal cost at x=5 @Mathematics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C'(x)=6x+4 6(5)+4=34

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't remember if there is another step after this or if the marginal cost is $34 last time I did marginal cost was over a year ago

OpenStudy (nocipher):

marginal cost is the change in total cost that arises when the quantity produced changes by one unit (from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_cost)

OpenStudy (nocipher):

Based on that, 34 is the marginal cost for x=5
