Assume that it costs a company approximately C(x) = 400,000 + 140x + 0.003x? dollars to manufacture x smartphones in an hour. (a) Find the marginal cost function. 400,000 – 0.000009 Use it to estimate how fast the cost is increasing when x = 10,000. 2$ per smartphone Compare this with the exact cost of producing the 10,001st smartphone. The cost is increasing at a rate of $ per smartphone. The exact cost of producing the 10,001st smartphone is $ Thus, there is a difference of $ (b) Find the average cost function C and the average cost to produce the first 10,000 smartphones.
