Question
The total revenue in Rupees received from the sale of x units of a product is given by R(x) = 3x2 + 36x + 5. The marginal revenue, when x = 15 is
(A) 116
(B) 96
(C) 90
(D) 126
Solution
Marginal revenue is the rate of change of total revenue with respect to the number of units sold.
∴Marginal Revenue (MR) `(dR)/dx` = 3(2x) + 36 = 6x + 36
∴When x = 15,
MR = 6(15) + 36 = 90 + 36 = 126
Hence, the required marginal revenue is Rs 126.
The correct answer is D.
