The total cost function for production of x articles is given as C = 100 + 600x – 3x2 . Find the values of x for which total cost is decreasing.
उत्तर
Given, the cost function is
C = 100 + 600x - 3x2
∴ `"dC"/"dx" = 0 + 600 - 6"x"`
= 600 - 6x
= 6(100 - x)
Since total cost C is a decreasing function,
`"dC"/"dx" < 0`
∴ 6(100 - x) < 0
∴ 100 - x < 0
∴ 100 < x
∴ x > 100
∴ The total cost is decreasing for x > 100.

A manufacturing company produces x items at a total cost of ₹ 40 + 2x. Their price per item is given as p = 120 – x. Find the value of x for which profit is increasing
Solution: Total cost C = 40 + 2x and Price p = 120 − x
Profit π = R – C
∴ π = `square`
Differentiating w.r.t. x,
`("d"pi)/("d"x)` = `square`
Since Profit is increasing,
`("d"pi)/("d"x)` > 0
∴ Profit is increasing for `square`
