Answer:
a) The amount of edging needed = 7.54 meters
b) Cost to edge the garden = $32.80
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
the amount of edging needed is basically the circumference (perimeter) of the circle. It has the formula:

Where
C is the circumference
r is the radius
Given, diameter = 2.4, radius is HALF of it, so
r = 2.4/2 = 1.2
Now, finding circumference:

The amount of edging needed = 7.54 meters
b)
$4.35 is needed to edge 1 meter, since we need 7.54 meters, we find the total cost by multiplying 4.35 with 7.54, so we have:
4.35*7.54 = $32.80
Cost to edge the garden = $32.80
"the candle is 17 inches tall after 3 hours" then it says " after 5 hours it is 15 inches tall"
-assuming that they mean that after 2 additional hours (from 3-5), the candle is now 2 inches shorter than before, a unit of decreasing value can be determined in this case the candle is "shortening" at a rate of 1 inch/per hour. If we write this in equation form it looks like this I think: h = h-t ...... right ? so then: h = 20 - 8 , h = 12 inches after 8 hours.
20 inches is the original height of the candle before any was burnt that I calculated using the same equation - What do you think of my answer.
