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:
left limit = 2 ≠ 1/2 = right limit
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is discontinuous if the limit of the function value approaching the point from the left is different than the limit approaching from the right.
Here, the left limit is 2 and the right limit is 1/2. The limits are different, which is why the function is discontinuous at x=-1.
