You can put this solution on YOUR website! The cost C (in dollars) for a company to make x dozen units of a certain product is given by C = 0.1x^2 + 0.6x + 10. How many units can be made for $60?
------------------
60 = 0.1x^2 + 0.6x + 10
0.1x^2 + 0.6x -50 = 0
10x^2 + 60x -500 = 0
x = [-60 +- sqrt(3600 - 4*10*-500)]/20
x = [-60 +- 153.62..]/20
x = 4.6811... dozen units
