A hotdog vendor must pay a monthly fee to operate a food cart in the city park. The cost in dollars of selling x hundred hotdogs in a month can be approximated by C(x) = 210 + 85x. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. increases by approximately $ per 100 hotdogs. B. At a sales level of 500 hotdogs, the average cost is $ per 100 hotdogs. (c) Find the marginal average-cost function. The marginal average-cost function is C'(x) = . (d) Find and interpret the marginal average cost at sales levels of 500 hotdogs and 6000 hotdogs. The marginal average cost at sales levels of 500 hotdogs is $ /(100 hotdogs)". (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) The marginal average cost at sales levels of 6000 hotdogs is $ /(100 hotdogs)". (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) Interpret these results, choose the correct answer below. Take the sales level of 500 hotdogs as an example. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. A. At a sales level of 500 hotdogs, the average cost is $ per 100 hotdogs. B. At a sales level of 500 hotdogs, if an additional 100 hotdogs are sold, the average cost decreases by approximately $ per 100 hotdogs.
