an economist for a sporting goods company estimates the revenue and cost functions for the production of a new snowboard. These functions are R(x) = -x^2+10x and C(x) = 4x+5 respectively, where x is the number of snowboards produced, in thousands. The average profit is defined by the function AP(x) = (P(x))/x where P(x) is the profit function. Determine the production levels that make AP(x) > 0.
