Answer:
Minimum unit cost = 5,858
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function : C(x)=x^2−520x+73458
To find the minimum unit cost :
Take the derivative of C(x) with respect to x
dC/dx = 2x - 520
Set = 0
2x - 520
2x = 520
x = 260
To minimize unit cost, 260 engines must be produced
Hence, minimum unit cost will be :
C(x)=x^2−520x+73458
Put x = 260
C(260) = 260^2−520(260) + 73458
= 5,858
Hey there!!
Equation Given : x + 3x - 36
In order to solve this, we will need to combine the like terms.
What are like terms?
Like terms are terms which have the same variable, in the equation given, the variable mentioned is x and hence, the like terms are x and 3x.
Now, we will need to combine x and 3x.
Let's take x as 1x and 3x as 3x.
Now, we will need to add both these like terms.
1x + 3x
x will be common, we will need to add 1 and 3
1 + 3 is 4 and hence, 1x + 3x = 4x
Hence, the final equation would be :
4x - 36
Hence, the answer is option ( c )
Hope my answer helps!
X = 52 would be the answer you get.
Explanation you would divide both sides by 0.6 which leaves the x and by dividing 31.2 divided by 0.6 it gives you 52
