Answer:

Minimum average cost = 743.75

Number of dvds to achieve the cost = 62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the cost equation

C = 0.04x² − 5x + 900

To Obtian the minimum average cost ;

Find dc/dx = 0

Diffentiate cost, c it ith respect to x

dc/dx = 2(0.04x) - 5

dc/dx = 0.08x - 5 = 0

0.08x = 5

x = 5 / 0.08

x = 62.5

Substitute the value of x into C to obtain the minimum average cost

C = 0.04(62.5)² - 5(62.5) + 900

C = 743.75
