Finding the minimum-----------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=0.001x%5E2-x%2B600\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=0.001%28x%5E2-1000x%29%2B600\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=0.001%28x%5E2-1000x%2B%281000%2F2%29%5E2%29%2B600-%280.001%29%281000%2F2%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=0.001%28x-500%29%5E2%2B600-%280.001%29%28500%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "The minimum C will occur for \"highlight%28x=500%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You can find the value for C at its minimum using either the original function or the last equation.\r
