Well the marginal profit function is a derivative of the P(x). So, first take the derivative of the P(x) to obtain P'(x).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let P'(x) = D(x) (because for some reason the equation editor won't let me work with apostrophes)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus, \"D%28x%29+=+-2x%2B+150\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now you want to find the marginal profit when x = 10. To do this, plug in x =10 to the function that just got differentiated.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"D%28x%29+=+-2%2810%29+%2B+150\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Simplify and obtain\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"D%28x%29+=+130\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "130 is your final answer, the marginal profit.
