Question
![**Cost Function Problems**
Here, we explore how to derive cost functions based on given marginal costs and fixed costs.
---
**Problem A**
The marginal cost of producing the \( x \)th box of light bulbs is given by:
\[ 12 - \frac{x}{10000} \]
The fixed cost is $20,000.
*Objective:*
Find the cost function \( C(x) \).
---
**Problem B**
The marginal cost of producing the \( x \)th CD is:
\[ 20 + x + \frac{x^2}{3} \]
The total cost to produce 100 boxes is $10,000.
*Objective:*
Find the cost function \( C(x) \).
---
**Integration Problems**
1. Evaluate the integral:
\[
\int (x^{2.5} + x^{-1.3}) \, dx
\]
2. Evaluate the integral:
\[
\int x^4 \, dx
