Il. Tangent Lines and Optimization in Business and Economics In business and economics, common questions of interest include how to maximize profit of revenue, how to minimize average costs, and how to maximize average productivity For questions such as these, the description of how to obtain the desired maximum or minimum represents an optimal (or best possible) solution to the problem. And the pro. cess of finding an optimal solution is called optimization. Answering these questions often involves tangent lines. In this project, we examine how tangent lines can be used to mini- mice average costs. suppose that Wittage, Inc. manufactures paper shredders for home and office use and that its weekly total costs (in dollars) for x shredders are given by C(x) = 0.03x] + 12.75x + 6075 The average cost per unit for x units (denoted by C(x)) is the total cost divided by the num- ber of units. Thus, the average cost function for Wittage, Inc. is 6075 ax (x) 0.03x' + 12.75x + 6075 0.03x 12.75x C(x) = 0.03x + 12.75 + 6075 Wittage, Inc. would like to know how the company can use marginal costs to gain informa- tion about minimizing average costs. To investigate this relationship, answer the following questions 1. Find Wittage's marginal cost function, then complete the following table. 100 200 300 400 500 600 c(x) MC (x) 2. (a) For what x-values in the table is C getting smaller? (b) For these x-values, is MC C, or MC = C? 3. (a) For what x-values in the table is C getting larger? (b) For these x-values, is MC C. or MC = C? 4. Between what pair of consecutive x-values in the table will C reach its minimum? 5. Interpret (a) C (200) and MC(200) and (b) C (400) and MC(400). 6. On the basis of what C and MC tell us, and the work so far, complete the following reasoning. statements by filling the blank with increase, decrease, or stay the same. Explain your (a) MC C means that if Wittage makes one more unit, then C will_ 7. (a) On the basis of your answers to Question 6, how will C and MC be related when C is minimized? Write a careful statement. (b) Use your idea from part (a) to find x where C is minimized. Then check your calculations by graphing C and locating the minimum from the graph.ASSIGNMENT - PRINCIPLES OF MICROECONOMICS 1. (40 points) Use the graph to answer the following questions.
