1. Problem Description

The total cost of producing xx toys is given by C(x)=2350+80x0.04x2C(x) = -2350 + 80x - 0.04x^2. The price function is given by P(x)=2x35P(x) = 2x - 35. We need to find the marginal profit function.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to find the revenue function, R(x)R(x). The revenue is the price per toy times the number of toys sold, so R(x)=xP(x)R(x) = x \cdot P(x).
R(x)=x(2x35)=2x235xR(x) = x(2x - 35) = 2x^2 - 35x
Next, we need to find the profit function, Pr(x)Pr(x). Profit is revenue minus cost, so Pr(x)=R(x)C(x)Pr(x) = R(x) - C(x).
Pr(x)=(2x235x)(2350+80x0.04x2)=2x235x+235080x+0.04x2Pr(x) = (2x^2 - 35x) - (-2350 + 80x - 0.04x^2) = 2x^2 - 35x + 2350 - 80x + 0.04x^2
Pr(x)=(2+0.04)x2+(3580)x+2350=2.04x2115x+2350Pr(x) = (2 + 0.04)x^2 + (-35 - 80)x + 2350 = 2.04x^2 - 115x + 2350
Finally, we need to find the marginal profit function, which is the derivative of the profit function, Pr(x)Pr'(x).
Pr(x)=ddx(2.04x2115x+2350)=2(2.04)x115+0=4.08x115Pr'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(2.04x^2 - 115x + 2350) = 2(2.04)x - 115 + 0 = 4.08x - 115

3. Final Answer

The marginal profit function is Pr(x)=4.08x115Pr'(x) = 4.08x - 115.
