The cost of manufacturing a certain mountain bike is given by c(x)=200,000 + 100x, where x is the number of mountain bikes produced. The average cost per mountain bike, denoted by c(x), is found by dividing c(x) by x. Find the given quantities. (a) c(500) (b) c(5000) (c) lim c(x) x-50,000 (a) c(500) = $ per mountain bike (Round to the nearest cent as needed.)
