anonymous · Answer

see... it depends if you have a small boat... in which case you don't have much time to start inflating your life raft.

anonymous · Answer

Company data suggests that the total dollar cost of a certain flight is approximately $$c(x)= 0.0005x^3 - 0.38x^2 + 120x$$
Where x = no. of passengers.

Estimate the marginal cost of an additional passenger if the flight already has 150 passengers

Then Compare this value with the cost of one additional passenger.
