The manager of a T-shirt stand found that the cost to produce 10 T-shirts is $105.68, while the cost to produce 40 T-shirts is $402.98.
Assume the cost C(x) is a linear function of x, the number of T-shirts produced.
Calculate the marginal cost of a T-shirt, that is, the change in cost of producing one additional T-shirt. (Round to 2 decimal places)
Marginal cost is the slope of both the average variable cost and the variable cost functions.
