Answer:
Minimum unit cost = 5,858
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function : C(x)=x^2−520x+73458
To find the minimum unit cost :
Take the derivative of C(x) with respect to x
dC/dx = 2x - 520
Set = 0
2x - 520
2x = 520
x = 260
To minimize unit cost, 260 engines must be produced
Hence, minimum unit cost will be :
C(x)=x^2−520x+73458
Put x = 260
C(260) = 260^2−520(260) + 73458
= 5,858
I do not understand why there are two decimal places.
But either ways if you are asking for :
0.0000489 then it is 4.89*10⁻⁵
0.489 then it is 4.89*10⁻¹
The trick is to count the zeroes to the first actual significant number you see and then write the number you counted with a negative sign for your power.
I hope this helps!
