To find the minimum marginal cost, calculate the derivative of the cost function and solve for x when it equals zero. However, since the quadratic equation has no real solutions, there is no minimum marginal cost.
To find the minimum marginal cost, we need to calculate the derivative of the cost function and find where it equals zero. Let's first find the derivative of the given cost function C(x) = 3x³ - 2x² + 2x + 3:
C'(x) = 9x² - 4x + 2
Next, set C'(x) = 0 and solve for x:
9x² - 4x + 2 = 0
Using the quadratic formula, we get:
x = (-(-4) ± √((-4)² - 4(9)(2))) / (2(9))
x = (4 ± √(16 - 72)) / 18
x = (4 ± √(-56)) / 18
Since the square root of a negative number is not real, there are no real solutions. Therefore, the minimum marginal cost is not possible.
