00:01 The question says that the average cost for a company to produce x units of a product is given by a as a function of x equal to 16x plus 1200 divided by x.
00:21 A prime x.
00:22 I have to, a prime x to estimate the change in average cost as production goes 200 to 201 units.
00:27 First of all, a prime x.
00:32 So before that, let us write it as 16x by x plus 1200 by x.
00:39 X x cancelled out.
00:41 16 plus 1200 by x, a prime x.
00:45 This is known as marginal average cost...
