Question
A manufacturer incurs the following costs in producing x water ski vests in one​ day, for
0<x<200​:
fixed​ costs,
​$245​;
unit production​ cost,
​$15
per​ vest; equipment maintenance and​ repairs,
0.05x2
dollars.​ So, the cost of manufacturing x vests in one given day is given by
C(x)=0.05x2+15x+245​,
where
0<x<200.
 
​(A)
What is the average cost
C(x)
per vest if x vests are produced in one​ day?
​(B)
Find the critical numbers of
C(x)​,
the intervals on which the average cost per vest is​ decreasing, the intervals on which the average cost per vest is​ increasing, and the local extrema. Do not graph
