Answer
a) C(0) = 5000 ; The cost of manufacturing 0 computers is 5000 dollars.
b) C(10) = 19,000 ; The cost of manufacturing 10 computers is 19,000 dollars.
c) C(50) = 51,000 ; The cost of manufacturing 50 computers is 51,000 dollars.
d) Domain of C = {x :0 ≤ x ≤ 100} ; There are at most 100 computers manufactured in a day.
e) The shape increases gradually for the first three days and then suddenly increases.
f) The graph appears somewhat exponential as the slope begins to quickly increase as time goes on.
