The manufacturing company produces x items at the total cost of ₹ 180 + 4x. The demand function for this product is P = (240 − 𝑥). Find x for which profit is increasing
Concept: Application of Derivatives to Economics
A manufacturing company produces x items at a total cost of ₹ 40 + 2x. Their price per item is given as p = 120 – x. Find the value of x for which profit is increasing
Solution: Total cost C = 40 + 2x and Price p = 120 − x
Profit π = R – C
∴ π = `square`
Differentiating w.r.t. x,
`("d"pi)/("d"x)` = `square`
Since Profit is increasing,
`("d"pi)/("d"x)` > 0
∴ Profit is increasing for `square`
