The cost of packing a box of chocolates is given by 1/4x^2, where x is the number of chocolates (a box can never have fewer than 3 chocolates). If the weight of a box of chocolates is given by x + 2, what is the cost of packaging per weight unit?
A.1/4x-1/2+1/x+2

B.1/4x^2-1/2x+1

C.1/4x^2-1/2+1

D.1/4x-1/2x-1/x+2

Respuesta :

The cost of packaging the box of chocolates per weight unit is;  ¹/₄x²/(x + 2)

How to Solve Algebra problems?

We are given the cost of packing the box as;

C(x) = ¹/₄x²

where;

x is the number of chocolates

We are told that a box can never have fewer than 3 chocolates.

Now, the weight of a box of chocolates is given by; W(x) = x + 2

Thus, cost per unit weight is;

C(x)/W(x) = ¹/₄x²/(x + 2)
