The average cost per unit for the production of a certain brand of DVD is given by C=\frac{500+60c+0.01x^2}{x} , where x is the

number of units produced.
The is a line _ over the C, don't know what that means.

A. What is the average cost per unit when 500 units are produced? 60 units? 100 units?

Answer:

  A: for 500: 66; for 60: 68.9; for 100: 66

  B: no

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your average cost function is ...

  \overline{C}=\dfrac{0.01x^2+60x+500}{x}

A. The overline over the C indicates it is an average value.

Evaluating the cost function at the different production levels, we find the average cost per unit to be ...

<u>500 units</u>

  c = ((0.01·500)+60)500 +500)/500 = 65 +1 = 66

<u>60 units</u>

  c = ((0.01·60 +60)·60 +500)/60 = 60.6 +500/60 ≈ 68.93

<u>100 units</u>

  c = ((0.01·100 +60)·100 +500)/100 = 61 +5 = 66

__

B. Dividing out the fraction, we find that the cost per unit is ...

  0.01x +60 +500/x

As x gets large, this approaches the linear function c = 0.01x +60. This <em>increases</em> as the number of units produced rises. (The minimum average cost is at a production level of about 224 units.)

Does the equation y=14x represennt a proportinal relationship?
Sonbull [250]
Y=14x
Compare with general form:
y=kx
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
Here k=14
So 1 unit increase in x will bring 14 times increase in y.
There is a direct relation between x and y.
