Jerod is making candles from beeswax. He has 132.72 ounces of beeswax. If each candle uses 8.4 ounces of beeswax, how many candl
1 answer:
Answer:
15 candles and 6.72 ounces left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jerod has the amount of beeswax = 132.72 ounces
Jerod is making candles from beeswax.
one candle uses the amount of beeswax = 8.4 ounces
Total candles can be made from total beeswax =
= 15.8
With 132.72 ounces wax 15 candles were made.
In order to calculate the left over wax we calculate the amount is used in 15 candles
= 8.4 × 15 = 126 ounces
Left over wax = 132.72 - 126 = 6.72 ounces
Therefore, 15 candles can be made and 6.72 ounces wax would be left over.

Answer:
a) Depth changing rate of change is , When the water is 6 meters deep
b) The width of the top of the water is changing at a rate of , When the water is 6 meters deep
Step-by-step explanation:
As we can see in the attachment part II, there are similar triangles, so we have the following relation between them , then
.
a) As we have that volume is , then
, so we can derivate it
due to the chain rule, then we clean this expression for
and compute with the knowns
, is the depth changing rate of change when the water is 6 meters deep.
b) As the width of the top is , we can derivate it and obtain
The width of the top of the water is changing, When the water is 6 meters deep at this rate
