The total cost C (x) in Rupees associated with the production of x units of an item is given by
C(X) = 0.007 x3 - 0.003x2 + 15x + 4000
Find the marginal cost when 17 units are produced.
Marginal cost is the rate of change of total cost with respect to output.
∴Marginal cost
\begin{align}MC=\frac{dC}{dx}=0.007 (3x^2) - 0.003(2x) + 15\end{align}
MC = 0.021 x2 - 0.006x + 15
When x = 17, MC = 0.021 (172) − 0.006 (17) + 15
= 0.021(289) − 0.006(17) + 15
= 6.069 − 0.102 + 15
= 20.967
Hence, when 17 units are produced, the marginal cost is Rs. 20.967.
In each of the following cases, state whether the function is one-one, onto or bijective. Justify your answer.
(i) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3 – 4x
(ii) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 1 + x2
Show that the Modulus Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = |x|, is neither oneone nor onto, where | x | is x, if x is positive or 0 and |x| is – x, if x is negative.
Prove that the Greatest Integer Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = [x], is neither one-one nor onto, where [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x.
Let f : R → R be defined as f(x) = x4. Choose the correct answer.
(A) f is one-one onto
(B) f is many-one onto
(C) f is one-one but not onto
(D) f is neither one-one nor onto.
