The cost of controlling emissions at a firm goes up rapidly as the amount of emissions reduced goes up. Here is a possible model: The cost of controlling emissions at a firm goes up rapidly as the amount of emissions reduced goes up. Here is a possible model:   where q is the reduction in emissions (in pounds of pollutant per day)and C is the daily cost (in dollars)of this reduction. Government clean-air subsidies to the firm are based on the formula   where q is again the reduction in emissions (in pounds per day)and S is the subsidy (in dollars). Calculate the net cost function   given the cost and subsidy above, and find the value of q that gives the lowest net cost. What is this lowest net cost? where q is the reduction in emissions (in pounds of pollutant per day)and C is the daily cost (in dollars)of this reduction.
