Question

Solution

Since the marginal revenue is the rate of change of total revenue with respect to its output,
Marginal Revenue (MR) = 

\[\frac{dR}{dx}\left( x \right) = \frac{d}{dx}\left( 13 x^2 + 26x + 15 \right) = 26x + 26\]
When x = 7,
Marginal Revenue (MR)
\[= 26(7) + 26 = 182 + 26 = \text { Rs } \ 208 \]
