Calculate ATC, AFC, AVC, and MC as a function of Q and produce a graph of the ATC, AFC, AVC, and MC curves as a function of Q. (Again, use xy graph, connect the points, and make sure these curves are all on the same graph. Also, since ATC, AFC, AVC, and MC are not defined at Q=0, start your graph using Q-1, not Q=0.)
