Find the rate of change of total revenue, cost, and profit with respect to time. Assume that R (x) and C (x) are in dollars.

R (x) = 2x, C (x) = 0.01x² + 0.4x + 30, when x=25 and dx/dt=7 units per day.

    1. - dR/dt = 14 $/day

    2. - dC/dt = 4.55 $/day

    3. - dP/dt = 7,7 $/day

    Step-by-step explanation:

    By definition Profit is equal to Revenue minus total costs then.

    We have

    R (x) = 2*x

    C (x) = 0,01*x² + 0,4*x + 30

    Then Profit P (x) = 2*x - 0,01*x² - 0,4*x - 30

    P (x) = - 0.01*x² + 1.6*x - 30

    1. - Find rate of change total revenue per day, when

    x = 25 and dx/dt = 7 u/day

    R (x) = 2*x

    dR/dt = 2*dx/dt ⇒ dR/dt = 2 * 7

    dR/dt = 14 $/day

    2.-

    C (x) = 0,01*x² + 0,4*x + 30

    dC/dt = 0,01*x * dx/dt + 0,4*dx/dt

    dC/dt = 0,01*25*7 + 0.4*7

    dC/dt = 1.75 + 2.8

    dC/dt = 4.55 $/day

    3.-

    P (x) = - 0.01*x² + 1.6*x - 30

    dP/dt = - 2*0,01*x*dx/dt + 1.6*dx/dt

    dP/dt = - 2*0,01*25*7 + 1.6*7

    dP/dt = - 3,5 + 11.2

    dP/dt = 7,7 $/day
