# Finding a Cost Function In Exercises 55–58, find the cost function for the given marginal cost and fixed cost. See Example 8. Marginal   Cost Fixed   Cost   ( x = 0 ) d C d x = 1 50 x + 10 $1000 To determine To calculate: The cost function for the marginal cost dCdx=150x+10 that have a fixed cost of$1000.

Explanation

Given Information:

The marginal cost is dCdx=150x+10 and the fixed cost is \$1000.

Formula used:

The sum rule of basic integration [f(x)+g(x)]dx=f(x)dx+g(x)dx.

The simple power rule of integration xndx=xn+1n+1+C.

Calculation:

Consider the marginal cost, dCdx=150x+10.

Integrate the provided marginal cost, use the sum rule of basic integration [f(x)+g(x)]dx=f(x)dx+g(x)dx.

dCdxdx=(150x+10)dx=150xdx+10dx=150xdx+101dx

Use the simple power rule of integration xndx=xn+1n+1+C
