1/5+1/4+2/5 this is adding fractions with unlike denominators what is the answer

1 answer:

5 0

What you would do is change all the fractions to 20ths so they have a common denominator. For 1/5, you multiply 4x5 to get 20 in the denominator. Whatever you multiply on the bottom, you must do at the top. Do that for all fractions and you would get this:
4/20 + 5/20 + 8/20= 17/20 because denominator stays the same, add the values in the numerator.
ANSWER: 17/20

A company determined that the marginal cost, C' (x )of producing the xth unit of a product is given by C' (x )= x^3- 6x. Find t

Rashid [163]

Answer:

$C(x) = \frac{x^4}{4}-3x^2+3,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

The marginal cost function, C'(x), is the derivate of the cost function, C(x).

Therefore, we can obtain the cost function by finding the integral of the marginal cost function:

$C(x) = \int\ {C'(x)} \, dx \\C(x) = \int\ {(x^3-6x)} \, dx \\C(x) = \frac{1}{4} x^4-3x^2+a$

Where 'a' is a constant and represents fixed costs. If fixed costs are $3,000, the cost function is:

$C(x) = \frac{x^4}{4}-3x^2+3,000$
