Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Average Cost AC(x)=C(x)xAC(x) = \frac{C(x)}{x}

Marginal Average Cost =d(AC)dx= \frac{d(AC)}{dx}

Revenue R(x)=P×xR(x) = P \times x

Marginal Revenue MR=dRdxMR = \frac{dR}{dx}


For C(x)=50xC(x) = \frac{50}{\sqrt{x}}:

Average Cost:

AC(x)=C(x)xAC(x) = \frac{C(x)}{x}

=50/xx= \frac{50/\sqrt{x}}{x}

=50xx= \frac{50}{x\sqrt{x}}

=50x−3/2= 50x^{-3/2}

Marginal Average Cost:

d(AC)dx=ddx(50x−3/2)\frac{d(AC)}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}(50x^{-3/2})

=50×(−32)×x−5/2= 50 \times \left(-\frac{3}{2}\right) \times x^{-5/2}

=−75x−5/2= -75x^{-5/2}

=−75x2x= -\frac{75}{x^2\sqrt{x}}

(A) matches with (II)


For C(x)=50xC(x) = 50\sqrt{x}:

Average Cost:

AC(x)=50xxAC(x) = \frac{50\sqrt{x}}{x}

=50x= \frac{50}{\sqrt{x}}

=50x−1/2= 50x^{-1/2}

Marginal Average Cost:

d(AC)dx=50×(−12)×x−3/2\frac{d(AC)}{dx} = 50 \times \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) \times x^{-3/2}

=−25x−3/2= -25x^{-3/2}

=−25xx= -\frac{25}{x\sqrt{x}}

(B) matches with (III)


For demand function P=50xP = \frac{50}{\sqrt{x}}:

Revenue function:

R(x)=P×xR(x) = P \times x

=50x×x= \frac{50}{\sqrt{x}} \times x

=50xx= \frac{50x}{\sqrt{x}}

=50x= 50\sqrt{x}

(C) matches with (I)


For demand function P=50xP = 50\sqrt{x}:

Revenue function:

R(x)=P×xR(x) = P \times x

=50x×x= 50\sqrt{x} \times x

=50x3/2= 50x^{3/2}

Marginal Revenue:

MR=dRdxMR = \frac{dR}{dx}

=50×32×x1/2= 50 \times \frac{3}{2} \times x^{1/2}

=75x= 75\sqrt{x}

(D) matches with (IV)


Final Matching:

(A) → (II): −75x2x-\frac{75}{x^2\sqrt{x}}

(B) → (III): −25xx-\frac{25}{x\sqrt{x}}

(C) → (I): 50x50\sqrt{x}

(D) → (IV): 75x75\sqrt{x}
