Accepted Answer

$$f'(x) = 24x^3$ + 20x^4$

Question 10

A pharmaceutical company’s revenue is $$R(x, y) = 200x + 200y - 4x^2$ - 3y^2$ - 8xy. $$What is the marginal revenue with respect to $$x$$?

Accepted Answer

$$R_x(x, y) = 200 - 8x - 8y$$

Question 11

Accepted Answer

$$x = -7 ($$undefined), $$x = -1 ($$limit does not exist)

Question 12

Refer to Figure (4). What is $$\lim\limits_{x 	o 4^-} f(x)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$\infty$$
