The fixed and variable costs for three potential manufacturing plant sites for a basket weaver are shown

below:

Site Fixed cost per year Variable cost per unit

Site A $10007$

Site B $50011$

Site C $17004$

a$)$ Over what range of production is each location optimal? To answer that question, $1)$ write an

equation representing cost for each site $2)$ graph them all $3)$ find all points of intersections and

$4)$ for ranges of units manufactured $(0-300$ units$),$ determine which site is optimal
