Average cost. The average cost for a company to produce $x$ units of a product is given by the function $A(x)=\frac{13 x+100}{x}$ Use $A^{\prime}(x)$ to estimate the change in average cost as production goes from 100 units to 101 units.

The average cost for a company to produce x units of a product is given by the function A(x) = (15x + 200) / x. Use A'(x) to estimate the change in average cost as production goes from 100 units to 101 units. The change in average cost is approximately dollars.
