Solve the problem.Financial analysts in a company that manufactures ovens arrived at the following daily cost equation for manufacturing x ovens per day: C(x) = x2 + 4x + 1800. The average cost per unit at a production level of x ovens per day is (x) = C(x)/x. (i) Find the rational function . (ii) Sketch a graph of (x) for 10 ? x ? 125. (iii) For what daily production level (to the nearest integer) is the average cost per unit at a minimum, and what is the minimum

average cost per oven (to the nearest cent)? HINT: Refer to the sketch in part (ii) and evaluate (x) at appropriate integer values until a minimum value is found. 



A. (i)  (x) = 
(ii) 

(iii) 44 units; $185.61 per oven
B. (i)  (x) = 
(ii) 

(iii) 61 units; $133.29 per oven
C. (i)  (x) = 
(ii) 

(iii) 22 units; $48.93 per oven
D. (i)  (x) = 
(ii) 

(iii) 42 units; $88.86 per oven

Solve the problem, rounding the answer as appropriate. Assume that "pure dominant" describes one who has two dominant genes for a given trait; "pure recessive" describes one who has two recessive genes for a given trait; and "hybrid" describes one who has one of each.Two hybrids produce a litter of four offspring. What is the probability that exactly one is pure recessive?
