Marginal revenue. A defense attorney charges her client $4000 plus $120 per hour. The formula R 120n 4000 gives her revenue in dollars for n hours of work. What is her revenue for 100 hours of work? What is her revenue for 101 hours of work? By how much did the one extra hour of work increase the revenue? (The increase in revenue is called the marginal revenue for the 101st hour.)

For 100 hours of work, the revenue is $16,000.  For 101 hours, it is 16,120.  The extra hour increased the revenue by $120.  This is not terribly hard math.
