The demand function for custom stuffed animals is: P = 1000 - 20Q The cost depends on how much of each of their inputs they use. It takes 3 inputs to make a stuffed animal: cotton, oil, and chorizo. The amount required, input prices, and restrictions are below: It takes 1 pound of cotton to make a stuffed animal. Cotton costs $20 per pound. They can buy up to 23 pounds of cotton. It takes 2 barrels of oil to make a stuffed animal. Oil costs $10 per barrel. They can buy up to 44 barrels of oil. It takes 3 chorizo burritos to make a stuffed animal. Burritos cost $5 per burrito.

- Calculus is a powerful tool used in economics. One of the initial applications areas is the study of a firm, a topic in microeconomics. An important function is the cost function function C(x), the cost of producing x items (of whatever they are selling). This question deals with just the cost function C(x). Problem Set question: The cost, in dollars, of producing x units of a certain item is given by C(x)=5x−4x−1−−−−√. Find the production level that minimizes the average cost per unit. The number of units that minimizes the average cost is .Would a cost function of 0 mean a linear line of supply curve? For example if 10 firms are on the market selling 10 goods and the cost function is 0?The unit price of a product is given by P(X) = 200 - 0,01X and the total cost function C(x) = 50X + 20.000 How many items should be sold to maximize profit?

The cost of each item of G1, G2 and G3 is $8, $30 and $15, respectively.(a) Write down suitable price and quantity vectors, and use matrix multiplication to work out the total cost of the order.(b) Write down the new price vector when the cost of G1 rises by 20%, the cost of G2 falls by 10% and the cost of G3 is unaltered. Use matrix multiplication to work out the new cost of the order and hence find the overall percentage change in total cost.The weekly marginal cost of producing x pairs of tennis shoes is given by the following function, where C(x) is cost in dollars.
