Answer:
576 cm sqyared
Step-by-step explanation:
8 x 4 x 3 x 6 = 576
Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder to work out how much wax you need to make one candle.
π×5²×15 = 375π
Then divide the amount of wax you have by the amount of wax you need to produce one candle to work out how many candles you can make.
4500 ÷ 375π = 3.82
However, you can't produce 82% of a candle, so you have to round down to 3 candles.
Answer:
y = 1/6 x^2 + 8/3 x + 49/6
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a parabola which opens upwards.
The distance of a point (x, y) from the focus is
√[(x - -8)^2 + (y - -1)^2] and
the distance of the point from the line y = -4
= y - -4
These distances are equal for a parabola so:
√[(x - -8)^2 + (y - -1)^2] = y + 4
Squaring both sides:
(x + 8)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = (y + 4)^2
x^2 + 16x + 64 + y^2 + 2y + 1 = y^2 + 8y + 16
x^2 + 16x + 64 + 1 - 16 = 8y - 2y
6y = x^2 + 16x + 49
y = 1/6 x^2 + 8/3 x + 49/6 is the equation of the parabola.
Ok, if you decrease <span>£2500 by 1% you get 99% remaining
</span>So
99% of £2500 = 0.99 x £2500 = <span>£2475</span>
