Answer: 11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Gallons of corn syrup used: 8 </em>
  • <em>Pieces of candy produced: 1,776 </em>
  • <em>gallons of corn syrup per hour: 52 </em>

If we apply proportions:

8 /1,776 = 52/x

Where x is the pieces of candy made per hour.

Solving

x = 52x1, 776 /8

x = 11,544

11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.

The volume of a rectangular prism is 2,058cm. The Length of the prism is 3 times the width. The height is twice the width. Find
Nat2105 [25]

v = l x w x h

v = 2058

width = x

height = 2x

length = 3x


2058 = 3x*2x*x =

2058 = 6x^3=

343 = x^3

x = 7

2*7 = 14

3*7 = 21

21*14*7 = 2058


 height is 14 cm

F(x) =5x^2-20x+3 how to find minimum
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

(2,-17) should be the minimum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum of a quadratic function occurs at x=-\frac{b}{2a} . If a is positive, the minimum value of the function is f(-\frac{b}{2a})

f_{min}x=ax^2+bx+c occurs at x=-\frac{b}{2a}

Find the value of x=-\frac{b}{2a}

x = 2

evaluate f(2).

replace the variable x with 2 in the expression.

f(2)=5(2)^2-20(2)+3

simplify the result.

f(2)=5(4)-20(2)+3

f(2)=20-40+3

f(2)=-17

The final answer is -17

Use the x and y values to find where the minimum occurs.

100pts: Why was obsidian used to make scalpels?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Research also confirms that incisions carried out with obsidian produce narrower scars and fewer inflammatory cells. This is because on cellular level, obsidian knife cuts between cells rather than tearing it in case of a steel knife, hence, a sharper cut allows the wound to heal more easily with negligible scarring.
