find the number of units x that produces a minimum average cost per unit. C=1.25x^2 +25x + 8000 include all steps please.

minimum is at the vertex. first coordinate of the vertex is always \[x=-\frac{b}{2a}\] so that is what you use, with \[a=1.25, b=25\] but you will get a negative number which makes no sense in this problem.

maybe it was \[C=1.25x^2 -25x + 8000 \]
