Question

A company estimates that it costs `0.03x^2+4x+1000` dollars to produce x units of a product. How do you find the expression for the average cost per unit?

Answer 1

Divide total cost by the number of units.

Explanation:

`C//u=(0.03x^2+4x+1000)/x`

`C//u=(0.03x*cancelx)/cancelx+(4cancelx)/cancelx+1000/x`

`C//u=0.03x+4+1000/x`
