Come up with two examples of ratio relationships that are interesting to you.

Murljashka [212]3 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, my definition of interesting in this case bends the rule a little bit because the examples are chained. From my POV, that is what makes these situations interesting and kind of funny: multi-variable relations.

The first example is the number of cups of water for every cup for every cup of rice when you are cooking. That ratio is 2:1; the second example is linked with that same situation and is the amount of salt spoons for every cup of rice when you are cooking, my mom taught me that is 1/2:2, because salt really makes itself feel. You can continue linking more ratios to that one and define how many oil spoons per cup of rice you need when cooking. I usually follow the same measure 1/2:2.

Hope you like my examples. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with. :D

The volume of a rectangular prism is b3 + 8b2 + 19b + 12 cubic units, and its height is b + 3 units. The area of the base of the
omeli [17]
Given:

The volume of the rectangular prism is 

b^{3}+8 b^{2} +19b+12,

the height is h=(b+3)

1. The volume of a rectangular prism is (base area)*height

also, notice that the volume is a third degree polynomial, the height is a 1st degree polynomial, so the base area must be a 2nd degree polynomial, whose coefficients we don't know yet.
Let this quadratic polynomial be (mb^{2}+nb+k)

 
2

b^{3}+8 b^{2} +19b+12=(mb^{2}+nb+k)*(b+3)


notice that  b^{3} is the product of the largest 2 terms: mb^{2} and b, so m must be 1

also, notice that 12 is the product of the constants, k and 3

so k*3=12, this means k=4

3
we write the above equality again:

b^{3}+8 b^{2} +19b+12=(b^{2}+nb+4)*(b+3)


(b^{2}+nb+4)(b+3)= b^{3}+3 b^{2} +nb^{2}+3nb+4b+12

== b^{3}+(n+3)b^{2}+(3n+4)b+12


4
now compare the coefficient with the left side:

8 b^{2}=(n+3)b^{2}

8=n+3

n=5


substituting n=5: 

the base area is b^{2}+5b+4

Answer: b^{2}+5b+4

A rectangular container can hold 45 candles, while a cylindrical container holds 41 candles. Each rectangular
kap26 [50]

Answer:

  a) no

  b) 143 rectangular containers

  c) 157 cylindrical containers

  d) both (preferring rectangular for the bulk of an order)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If the company needs to package 6,400 candles, should it use only rectangular or only cylindrical containers to minimize costs?

  No.*

For packaging 41 candles or fewer, the cylindrical container costs less than the rectangular one.

For packaging 6400 candles, there will be 10 candles left over if rectangular containers are used for most of the packaging needs. A dollar can be saved by packaging these remaining candles in a cylindrical container.

__

b) How many rectangular containers will be necessary to package 6,400 candles?

  6400/45 = 142 10/45

If rectangular containers are used for all, then 143 are needed.

__

c) How many cylindrical containers will be necessary to package 6,400 candles?

  6400/41 = 156 4/41

If cylindrical containers are used for all, the 157 are needed.

__

d) Which container should the company use to minimize costs?

  The cost of 143 rectangular containers is 143×$16 = $2288

  The cost of 157 cylindrical containers is 157×$15 = $2355

  The cost of 142 rectangular and 1 cylindrical container is $2287

If only one shape container is used, the company should use rectangular containers to minimize cost. If either shape can be used, cost will be minimized by using one cylindrical container for the remnant of the order.

_____

* This question is directed solely at the cost of materials required for packaging. We have advocated that both rectangular and cylindrical containers be made available. As a practical matter, the cost to the company of maintaining inventory of both sizes of containers may exceed the savings associated with using a cheaper container for smaller orders.
