Mathematics

Answer: You would want to have the highest possible volume to surface area ratio in an ice cube.

When you put ice into your drink, the goal is to have the ice chill your drink. This takes time. Therefore, you would want the ice to slow melt and cool the drink for as long as you can.

If your ice cube is mostly surface area with less volume, it will melts to quickly and water down your drink. If your ice cube has a higher ratio of volume to surface area, it will stay solid longer and chill your drink longer.

A drink is made by mixing pineapple juice , orange juice and line juice in the ratio 2:7:3 Sally makes 600ml of the drink
Tresset [83]
Sally has 600 ml of drink
Karen has 600 ml of lime juice

When it is mixed at a ratio of 2:7:3 . . .pineapple:orange:lime (respectively) . . this means . . . there are a total of 2 + 7 + 3 parts = 12 parts . . and each part individually is as follows:

pineapple = 2/12
orange = 7/12
lime = 3/12

Sally has 12 parts = 600 ml of drink
 . . pineapple = 2/12*600ml = 100 ml pineapple
 . . orange = 7/12*600ml = 350 ml orange
 . . lime = 3/12*600ml = 150 ml lime

We know Karen has 600 ml of lime juice and if that is 3/12 of the total, then 600*12/3 = the total drink = 2400 ml of drink

Karen has 12 parts = 2400 ml of drink
 . . pineapple = 2/12*2400ml = 400 ml pineapple
 . . orange = 7/12*2400ml = 1400 ml orange
 . . lime = 3/12*2400ml = 150 ml lime


Thus . . . (for Karen) . . .
<u><em>A = 2400 ml of drink</em></u>
<u><em>B = 400 ml of orange juice</em></u>
<u><em>C = 1400 ml of pineapple juice</em></u>

a rectanglar solid has a base with lint 2 cm and width 8 cm. If the volume of the solid is 106 cm 3 to the highest, find the hei
Vanyuwa [196]
The hint says that volume of a rectangular solid = l*w*h, where l = length, w = width, and h = height. Use this to solve for the height of the solid by plugging in the numbers you know.

You know that length, l = 2cm, width, w = 8cm, and, *EDITED* volume = 160 cm^3. Plug these values into the equation for volume (the hint) and solve for h, the height:
Volume = lwh
160 = (2)(8)(h)
160 = 16h
h = 10cm

-------

Answer: The height is 10 cm
