Solve the problem.Let C(x) be the cost function and R(x) the revenue function. Compute the marginal cost, marginal revenue, and the marginal profit functions.C(x) = 0.0004x3 - 0.036x2 + 200x + 30,000R(x) = 350x

A. C'(x) = 0.0012x2 - 0.072x + 200 R'(x) = 350 P'(x) = 0.0012x2 - 0.072x - 150 B. C'(x) = 0.0012x2 - 0.072x + 200 R'(x) = 350 P'(x) = -0.0012x2 + 0.072x + 150  C. C'(x) = 0.0012x2 + 0.072x + 200 R'(x) = 350 P'(x) = 0.0012x2 + 0.072x + 150
