Hey there! :D
Since all the terms are being added together, and there is a common denominator with the fractions, we can just add them.
x+x= 2x 3/4+2/4= 5/4
2x+5/4
2x+1.25<== simplest form
I hope this helps!

An expression which combines variables, numbers and at least one operation is called binomial. Binomial consists of two terms that is separated with at least one operation. Operations may include addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Answer:
The dimensions that minimize the cost of materials for the cylinders have radii of about 3.628 cm and heights of about 7.256 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
A cylindrical can holds 300 cubic centimeters, and we want to find the dimensions that minimize the cost for materials: that is, the dimensions that minimize the surface area.
Recall that the volume for a cylinder is given by:
Substitute:
Solve for <em>h: </em>
Recall that the surface area of a cylinder is given by:
We want to minimize this equation. To do so, we can find its critical points, since extrema (minima and maxima) occur at critical points.
First, substitute for <em>h</em>.
Find its derivative:
Solve for its zero(s):
![\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (0) &= 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2} \\ \\ 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2} &= 0 \\ \\ 4\pi r^3 - 600 &= 0 \\ \\ \pi r^3 &= 150 \\ \\ r &= \sqrt[3]{\frac{150}{\pi}} \approx 3.628\text{ cm}\end{aligned}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20%5Cbegin%7Baligned%7D%20%280%29%20%26%3D%204%5Cpi%20r%20%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B600%7D%7Br%5E2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%204%5Cpi%20r%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B600%7D%7Br%5E2%7D%20%26%3D%200%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%204%5Cpi%20r%5E3%20-%20600%20%26%3D%200%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20%5Cpi%20r%5E3%20%26%3D%20150%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20r%20%26%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B150%7D%7B%5Cpi%7D%7D%20%5Capprox%203.628%5Ctext%7B%20cm%7D%5Cend%7Baligned%7D)
Hence, the radius that minimizes the surface area will be about 3.628 centimeters.
Then the height will be:
![\displaystyle \begin{aligned} h&= \frac{300}{\pi\left( \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{150}{\pi}}\right)^2} \\ \\ &= \frac{60}{\pi \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{180}{\pi^2}}}\approx 7.25 6\text{ cm} \end{aligned}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20%20%5Cbegin%7Baligned%7D%20h%26%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B300%7D%7B%5Cpi%5Cleft%28%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B150%7D%7B%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cright%29%5E2%7D%20%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20%26%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B60%7D%7B%5Cpi%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B180%7D%7B%5Cpi%5E2%7D%7D%7D%5Capprox%207.25%206%5Ctext%7B%20cm%7D%20%20%20%5Cend%7Baligned%7D)
In conclusion, the dimensions that minimize the cost of materials for the cylinders have radii of about 3.628 cm and heights of about 7.256 cm.
Where <em>x </em>is the number of books sold, <em>i </em>is income, and <em>c </em>is cost:
<em>c = 4x + 3500 </em> ($4 per book plus the 3500 flat marketing fee)
<em>i = 15x </em>($15 per book)
You are looking for the point where these intersect: the intersection is where the income is equal to the cost, and at any point after that the income is greater than the cost. So, set the equations equal to each other:
<em>4x + 3500 = 15x </em>
subtract 4x from both sides
<em>3500 = 11x</em>
divide both sides by 11
<em>x = 318.181818</em>
So, you would have to sell a minimum of 319 books in order to make a profit.
