The cost of controlling emissions at a firm rises rapidly as the
amount of emissions reduced increases. Here is a possible
model:
C(q)
= 4,300 + 92q2
where q is the reduction in emissions (in
pounds of pollutant per day) and C is the daily
cost to the firm (in dollars) of this reduction. What level of
reduction corresponds to the lowest average cost per pound of
pollutant? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
1) pounds of pollutant per day:
2) What would be the resulting average cost to the nearest
dollar?
$ per pound:
