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 <em>x </em>cups. We have to solve for <em>x </em>using cross-multiplication:

$8x = 144 \\ x=18$

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

Find [4(cos15° + isin15°)]^3 and express it in a + bi form.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using De Moivre's theorem

Given

[ 4(cos15° + isin15° ) ]³, then

= 4³ [ cos(3 × 15°) + isin(3 × 15°) ]

= 64 (cos45° + isin45° )

= 64 ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ + $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ i )

= 64 ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ (1 + i) )

= 32 $\sqrt{2}$ (1 + i)

= 32 $\sqrt{2}$ + 32 $\sqrt{2}$ i

An asteroid follows a hyperbolic path defined by the equation 16x2 − 9y2 = 576. If one of its foci is the sun's position, the mi

amid [387]

The minimum distance between the asteroid and the sun is 10 - 6 =4

The given hyperbolic path defined as
divide both the sides by 576,

The general equation of

hyperbola is written as
