The total cost of production of spare parts of computer is given as C=4000x-100x²+x³ where x is the number of units of spare parts produced so that the average cost will be maximum?

Respuesta :

Answer:

x = 50

Explanation:

Given that,

The total cost of production of spare parts of computer is given as

C=4000x-100x²+x³

Where x is the number of units of spare parts produced

We need to find the number of units of spare parts so that the average cost will be maximum.

Average cost,

[tex]C(x)=\dfrac{C}{x}\\\\=\dfrac{4000x-100x^2+x^3}{x}\\\\=4000-100x+x^2[/tex]

For maximum average cost, put d(c)/dx = 0

[tex]\dfrac{d(4000-10x+x^2)}{dx}=0\\\\-100+2x=0\\\\x=50[/tex]

So, the number of units of spare parts is 50.
