To calculate the actual cost, revenue, and profit for producing and selling the 10th ounce of a commodity, we need specific functions for cost, revenue, and profit. However, since you haven't provided those functions, I will outline the general approach to solve this problem.
### Step 1: Define the Functions
Assume we have the following functions:
- **Cost Function**: \( C(x) \) - the total cost to produce \( x \) ounces.
- **Revenue Function**: \( R(x) \) - the total revenue from selling \( x \) ounces.
- **Profit Function**: \( P(x) = R(x) - C(x) \) - the profit from selling \( x \) ounces.
### Step 2: Calculate Actual Values
1. **Actual Cost to Produce the 10th Ounce**:
\[
C(10) - C(9)
\]
This gives the actual cost of producing the 10th ounce.
2. **Actual Revenue from the Sale of the 10th Ounce**:
\[
R(10) - R(9)
\]
This gives the actual revenue from selling the 10th ounce.
3. **Actual Profit from the Production and Sale of the 10th Ounce**:
\[
P(10) = R(10) - C(10)
\]
### Step 3: Use Marginal Functions
1. **Marginal Cost**: \( C'(x) \) - the derivative of the cost function.
- Approximate cost to produce the 10th ounce:
\[
C(9) + C'(9)
\]
2. **Marginal Revenue**: \( R'(x) \) - the derivative of the revenue function.
- Approximate revenue from the sale of the 10th ounce:
\[
R(9) + R'(9)
\]
3. **Marginal Profit**: \( P'(x) = R'(x) - C'(x) \).
- Approximate profit from the production and sale of the 10th ounce:
\[
P(9) + P'(9)
\]
### Step 4: Fill in the Blanks
Now, you can fill in the blanks based on the calculations:
- Using the marginal cost function, the approximate cost to produce the 10th ounce is **(insert value)**.
- Producing the 10th ounce of the commodity actually costs **(insert value)**.
- Using the marginal revenue function, the approximate revenue from the sale of the 10th ounce is **(insert value)**.
- The actual revenue from the sale of the 10th ounce of the commodity is **(insert value)**.
- Using the marginal profit function, the approximate profit from the production and sale of the 10th unit is **(insert value)**.
- The actual profit from the production and sale of the 10th ounce of the commodity is **(insert value)**.
### Conclusion
To complete this exercise, you will need the specific cost, revenue, and profit functions or their values at the relevant points (9 and 10 ounces). If you provide those, I can help you calculate the actual and approximate values.
To find the actual and approximate cost, revenue, and profit for the 10th ounce, use the marginal functions and the specific functions for cost, revenue, and profit. Calculate the actual values by subtracting the cost and revenue of 9 ounces from those of 10 ounces. Fill in the blanks with the calculated values.
