The production cost (£C) ofa bicycle in a factory is given by the function C=2x^2-200x+5100, where x is the number of bicycles manufactured per day, find the number of bicycles manufactured per day such that the production cost is a minimum.

1 answer

the minimum lies on the axis of symmetry

x min = -b / 2a = -(-200) / 2*2 = 50
