Vickie made a recipe for 144 fluid ounces of scented candle wax. How many 1 cup candle molds can she fill with the recipe?

1 answer:

6 0

There are 8 fluid ounces in 1 cup. You can solve this problem using these proportions:

$\frac{8}{1} = \frac{144}{x}$

It states that there are 8 fluid ounces in every 1 cup and 144 fluid ounces in every x cups. We have to solve for x using cross-multiplication:

$8x = 144 \\ x=18$

Vickie can fill 18 1 cup candle molds with 144 fluid ounces of scented candle wax.

What happens to the center of a figure when it is dilated about the origin?

alina1380 [7]

There are 2 answers for this in my opinion
1. nothing happens because its still in the origin and that won't change
2. depending on which way you turn it the points will change based on that

so if you know how to use a graph you should be good

Find the parabola with equation y = ax2 + bx whose tangent line at (3, 12) has equation y = 10x − 18. y = incorrect: your answer

pishuonlain [190]

For these questions to be true and the equation of the tangent to have an equal y to the equation of the parabola i guess there has to be a "c" and in that case integrate the equation of the tangent you will have a = 5 and b = -18 then you substitute in the equation of the parabola with the point you have you will find that "c" = 21 and so the equation of the parabola becomes y = 5x^2 - 18 x +21

True or false the x and y axes in the xy plane intersect perpendicularly

ohaa [14]

Please find the attachment for a better understanding of the explanation to this question.

As we can see from the diagram attached, the X axis represented by XX' and the Y axis represented by YY' intersect each other at the origin represented by O. Further, we notice that this intersection is at the angle 90 degrees or in other words the intersection is perpendicular. Thus, we have seen that the the x and y axes in the xy plane intersect perpendicularly. And hence, the answer is TRUE.

Please note that this is always the case and this is also known as orthogonality.
