Question 468283: Can someone help me with this please?
Aki's bicycle designs has determined that when x hundred bicycles are built, the average cost per bicycle is given by C(x)=0.2x^2-1.9x+8.394, where C(x) is in hundreds of dollars. How many bicycles should the shop build to maximize the average cost per bicycle?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
C(x)=0.2x^2-1.9x+8.394, where C(x) is in hundreds of dollars. How many bicycles should the shop build to maximize the average cost per bicycle?

Your equation does not have a maximum value.
Did you post it correctly.
It should have a "negative" exponent on the x^2 term.
