A cup of coffee at 90C is put into a 20C room when t = 0. The coffees temperature is changing at a rate of r(t) = 7(0.9t) C per minute, with t in minutes. Estimate the coffees temperature when t = 10.

Question
The marginal cost function of producing q mountain bikes is C(q) = 600 0.3q + 5 . (a) If the fixed cost in producing the bicycles is $2000, find the total cost to produce 30 bicycles. (b) If the bikes are sold for $200 each, what is the profit (or loss) on the first 30 bicycles? (c) Find the marginal profit on the 31st bicycle.
Solution
The first step in solving 5.5 problem number 10 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The marginal cost function of producing q mountain bikes is C(q) = 600 0.3q + 5 . (a) If the fixed cost in producing the bicycles is $2000, find the total cost to produce 30 bicycles. (b) If the bikes are sold for $200 each, what is the profit (or loss) on the first 30 bicycles? (c) Find the marginal profit on the 31st bicycle.
From the textbook chapter TOTAL CHANGE AND THE FUNDAMENTAL THEOREM OF CALCULUS you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
