A certain company has a fixed cost of $200 per day. It costs the company $3.10 per unit to make its products. The company is tracking its average cost to make x units using . Which statement is true?

Question illustration
A
The horizontal asymptote of y = 3.10 represents that the average cost per unit will approach $3.10 as the number of units produced increases.
B
The horizontal asymptote of y = 0 represents that the average cost per unit will approach $0 as the number of units produced increases.
C
The vertical asymptote of x = 3.10 represents that the average cost per unit will approach $3.10 as the number of units produced increases.
D
The vertical asymptote of x = 0 represents that the average cost per unit will approach $0 as the number of units produced increases.
