hour. At what time will the two candles be the same height?

The size of the candle 12cm will be reduced as follows:
12-0.5x (x are hours), an the size of the candle 18cm will be reduced as follows: 18-2x, so if you want to find at what time both will be the same height only match the two equations: 12-0.5x=18-2x and solvr for x.
-0.5x+2x=18-12
1.5x=6
x=6/1.5=4 this means 4 hours
If you lit both candles at 6pm then at 10pm they will be the same height
(adittional info: the height will be 10inches)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4) Angles opposite to equal sides are equal

45 + 45 + x = 180     {Angle sum property}

        90 +x = 180       {Subtract 90 from both sides}

               x = 180 - 90  

               x = 90

120 +y + y = 180        {Angle sum property}

      120 +2y = 180       {Subtract 120 from both sides

              2y =180 - 120

               2y = 60      {Divide both sides by 2}

                 y = 60/2

y = 30

5)All sides are equal. so this is a equilateral triangle.

So each angle of equilateral triangle = 60

4x = 60

x = 60/4

x = 15

y = 60 +60   {Exterior of triangle equal sum of opposite interior angles}

y = 120

6) All sides are equal. so this is a equilateral triangle.

So each angle of equilateral triangle = 60

y - 10 = 60    {add 10 to both side}

y = 60 + 10

y = 70

x + 5 = 60    {Subtract 5 from both sides}

x = 60 - 5

x = 55

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: this problem will result in difference of two squares.

Firstly since they are both areas, it will be area of the bigger square minus area of the smaller squares.

52² - 32²= (52+32)(52-32)

= (84)(20)

=1680inch².

Therefore the area of the material that will remain uncovered will be

1680inches²

Answer:

0.333\pi units³

Step-by-step explanation:

Think process:

The equation is given as y = e^{-3x}

Let, y = f (x)

Therefore, f (x) = e^{-3x}

We know that the limits are y-axis and x= 3

Y-axis: x= 0

then limits are given as x= 0 and x = 3

Integrating  gives:

\int\limits^3_0 {e^{-3x} } \, dx = \frac{-1}{3}e^{-3x} + C

calculating from x= 0 to x = 3, we know volume is given by \pi \int\limits^a_b {f(x)} \, dx

= \pi[ \frac{-1}{3} e^{-9}  - (\frac{-1}{3} e^{0})]

= \pi[0.000041136 + 1/3]

= 0.333\pi units³
