Ex 6.1, 18 The total revenue in Rupees received from the sale of š„ units of a product is given by R(š„) = 3š„2 + 36š„ + 5. The marginal revenue, when š„ = 15 is (A) 116 (B) 96 (C) 90 (D) 126Marginal revenue is rate of change of total revenue w. r. t the number of unit sold Let MR be marginal revenue So, MR = š š¹/š š Given, Total revenue = R (š„) = 3š„2 + 36š„ + 5 We need to find marginal revenue when š„ = 15 i.e. MR when š„ = 15 MR = š(š (š„))/šš„ MR = (š (3š„2 + 36š„ + 5) )/šš„ MR = (š(3š„2))/šš„ + (š(36š„))/šš„ + (š(5))/šš„ MR = 3 (š(š„2))/šš„ + 36 (š(š„))/šš„ + 0 MR = 3 Ć 2š„ + 36 MR = 6š + 36 MR when š = 15 MR = 6(15) + 36 MR = 90 + 36 MR = 126 Hence, the required marginal revenue is Rs. 126 Thus, D is the correct Answer
