- A Troublesome Snowball One winter afternoon, unbeknownst to his mom, a child bring a snowball into the house, lays it on the floor, and then goes to watch T.V. Let W=W(t) be the volume of dirty water that has soaked into the carpet t minutes after the snowball was deposited on the floor. Explain in practical terms what the limiting value of W represents, and tell what has happened physically when this limiting value is reached.arrow_forwardSuppose that the average cost, in dollars, of producing a shipment of a certain product is C = 3,000x + 12,000/x , x > 0 where x is the number of machines used in the production process. (a) Find the critical values of this function. (Assume 0 < x < ∞. Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.) x = (b) Over what interval does the average cost decrease? (Enter your answer using interval notation.) (c) Over what interval does the average cost increase?
