What we know:
12 hour period from 8pm to 8am
temperature dropped from 8°F to 16°F from 8pm to 8am

We need to find temperature at 4 am.

We can start by setting up points:
8pm is are starting point with 8°F, we can express it as (0,8), 0 represents initial time from 0 to 12 hour span.
8am is the ending point with 16°F, we can express it as (12,16), 12 represents the end time of 0 to 12 hours span.
We will use these points to find slope.
slope=m=(16-8)/(12-0)=8/12=2/3

Now, we can set up an expression to find any temperature at a specific time.  Aslo, x represents the hours not the the specific time of 4am. We will use 8 since 4am is the 8th hour of the 12 hour span. Using slope of 2/3 and the y intercept of (0,8) since we were already at 8°F at the initial time of 0 we have the function:

f(x)=2/3x+8 

f(8)=2/3(8)+8= 40/3≈13.3°

Emily makes cylindrical bars of soap to sell online. Each bar has a radius of 3.5 cm and a length of 4 cm. Each bar is wrapped i
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

C) 1050π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr²

radius, r = 3.5cm

Height, h = 4 cm

Surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr²

= 2 * π * 3.5 * 4 + 2 * π * 3.5²

= 28π + 2π * 12.25

= 28π + 24.5π

= 52.5π cm²

Surface area of a cylinder = 52.5π cm

There are 20 bars of soap

Total plastic Emily needs for 20 bars of soap = surface area of each soap × 20

= 52.5π cm² × 20

= 1,050π cm²
