A certain electronics manufacturer is making GPUs for gaming laptops (GPU stands for graphics processing unit). The manufacture found that the marginal cost C to produce x GPUs can be found using the equation C = 0.04x² 6x + 900. If the marginal cost were $744, how many GPUs were produced?

We are constructing a box from a rectangular piece of cardboard. The piece of cardboard which measures 16 inches wide and 34 inches long. We will remove a square of size “x” inches from each corner and turn up the edges. Once we remove the squares of size “x” inches from each corner and turn up the edges, we create a box: Label the dimensions of the newly created box using the variable “x”. What is the equation that represents the Volume of the box as a function of the cutsize of the box? V(x)=Vx= What is the restricted domain of this problem?
