[There will be a 20 point penalty assessed for turning in late]
The due date for this assignment is 11:59 pm on Wednesday April 27, 2022 at 11:59 pm. It is to be
uploaded as an online submission on Canvas. On Canvas go to Modules and then click on the
Signature Assignment Link located there. This link will let you download a copy of the assignment.
Then when you have finished the assignment click on submit assignment and a link will open up that
will let you upload your completed assignment. It is preferred that you upload it as a scanned pdf file
but if this is not possible you can upload it as a jpeg file by using your phone.. Use whatever method
works best for you – but make sure to have the completed assignment uploaded to Canvas no later
than 11:59 pm on April 27, 2022 .
1) Use the definition for the derivative 𝑓 ′(𝑥) = limℎ→𝑜 𝑓(𝑥+ℎ)−𝑓(𝑥)
ℎ to find the derivative of the
function f(x) = 3x 2 + 10x – 5. You must show all of your work. You can take the derivative the quick
way to check your answer – but you must show how to compute the derivative using the above
formula to get credit for this problem. (10 points)
𝑓 ′(𝑥) = _______________________________________
2) Assume that the cost equation in dollars of producing x units of a product is given by the equation
C (𝒙)=𝟐𝟓𝟎𝟎+𝟏𝟎𝒙 and that the monthly demand equation for the product is given by the equation
𝑝 = 30 − 𝑥
1000 where x is the number of units demanded per month when the price charged is
p dollars. Use the above information to compute the monthly revenue equation for the product.
Then find the monthly profit equation for the above product and use it to compute the monthly
marginal profit function for this product. Finally use this to determine the profit and marginal profit
associated with a monthly production level of 8000 units. All work must be shown! (16 points)
Revenue Equation = R(x) = ____________________________
Profit Equation = P(x) = _______________________________
Profit (8000) = ______________________________________
MP(8000) = _________________________________________
3) Given 𝑦=(x+2)(2𝑥 2 +3)
3 find the equation of the tangent line to this function when x = 1.
First find the point on this function and the slope of the tangent line to this function when
x = 1. Next use these to find the equation of the tangent line to this function when x = 1.
Finally, put this equation in slope intercept form. All work must be shown!! (15 points)
Point on function when x = 1 is (1, _____)
Slope of tangent line when x = 1 is _____________ Equation of tangent line in slope intercept form is: _______________________________________
4) A farmer needs to enclose by fences a rectangular field containing 392,000 square feet. One side of the field lies along a river and one side lies along a road. The river is perpendicular ( at right
angles) to the road, He needs a more expensive fence on the sides next to the road and the river,
with a cheaper fence being used on the remaining 2 sides. The fence costs $20 per foot along the
river, $15 per foot along the road, and $5 per foot on the remaining 2 sides to be fenced. Find the
dimensions he should use for the field to fulfill the above criteria and minimize the cost of fencing the
field. Also calculate the minimum cost possible for constructing a field that meets the above criteria?
Include a diagram of the field as part of your work. This diagram will help you determine the
correct cost function for constructing the fence. All work must be shown in order to get credit for
the problem!!!. (20 points)
The side next to the road must equal _____________ feet
The side next to the river must equal _____________ feet
The minimum cost of the fence is ___________________
5) Use integration by parts to evaluate the following integral :
∫ [3x 2 ln(x
3 )]dx. Identify the values that need to be used for u, du, dv, and v as well as
the final value for the integral. All work must be shown. (20 Points)
U = ___________________
du = ___________________
dv = ___________________
v = ____________________
∫ [3x 2 ln(x
3 )]dx = _____________________________
6a) Explain in your own words the meaning of the terms Consumer and Producer Surplus.
(4 Points)
6b) Given the demand equation for a product is p=D(𝑞)=200−0.3𝑞 2
and the supply function is
𝑝=S(𝑞)=0.2𝑞 2
find the equilibrium point for this product and use it to compute the value of the
Consumer and Producer Surplus associated with this product. All work must be shown. Round
answers off to two decimal places.
(15 points)
Equilibrium point _________________________
Consumer’s Surplus _______________________
Producer’s Surplus _______________________
