Answer:
$9327
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, the cost function is supposed to be ...
C(x) = 0.4x^2 -112x +17167
This can be rewritten to vertex form as ...
C(x) = 0.4(x^2 -280) +17167
C(x) = 0.4(x -140)^2 +17167 -0.4(19600)
C(x) = 0.4(x -140)^2 +9327
The vertex of the cost function is ...
(x, C(x)) = (140, 9327)
The minimum unit cost is $9327.

<em>Comment on the question</em>
You found the number of units that result in minimum cost (140 units), but you have to evaluate C(140) to find the minimum unit cost.
Answer:
option-C
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given
At 9:00 a.m., a wind speed of 20 miles per hour was recorded
So, initial wind speed =20 miles per hour
Each measurement showed an increase in wind speed of 3 miles per hour
The strongest wind was recorded at 4:00 p.m
so,
top wind speed = initial wind speed + ( total number of hours between 9:00 am and 4:00 pm)*(change in wind speed)
top wind speed = 20 mph+(16-9)*3

miles per hour
Since, change in wind speed and initial wind speed are constant
but the number of hours it took for the wind speed to reach its minimum for the day can be changed
so, most important variables is
the number of hours it took for the wind speed to reach its minimum for the day can be changed
