- Here is a better graph of the cost and average cost functions that I used in class on Wednesady, November 16th. Note that if you look at a line connecting the origin to the green cost function, then the average cost is minimized when this line is just tangent to the graph of the cost function. The corresponds to the obvious minimum on the red average cost graph. Print a copy and draw the line!
- Here are the solutions and marking scheme for midterm 2.
- My last example from the October 31st lecture.

Exams
The solutions and markings scheme for Midterm 1 are available. The grade distribution for the midterm is your best way of interpreting the results. Each bin is labelled with the upper bound: for example, 35 means the marks are >30 and <= 35. If you scored 15 or less, you should talk to me about your performance as I am very concerned.
