How do you suggest going about showing this? The only way I could
think was taking the derivative of C(w) and setting it equal to zero
to find the crit points, but that turns out to be some intense algebra
after some intense calculus, and I can't imagine doing something like
that on a exam. Is there an easier way?

The algebra on 5(b) is not so bad if you organize it well.
