The volume of the candle initially is:
V=Ab*h
Area of the base of the cylinder: Ab=pi*r^2
pi=3.14
Radius of the base: r=4 cm
Height of the cylinder: h=6 cm
Ab=pi*r^2
Ab=3.14*(4 cm)^2
Ab=3.14*(16 cm^2)
Ab=50.24 cm^2
V=Ab*h
V=(50.24 cm^2)*(6 cm)
V=301.44 cm^3
The candle melts at a constant rate of:
r=(60 cm^3)/(2 hours)=(120 cm^3)/(4 hours)=(180 cm^3)/(6 hours)
r=30 cm^3/hour
The amount of candle melted off after 7 hours is:
A=(30 cm^3/hour)*(7 hours)
A=210 cm^3
The percent of candle that is melted off after 7 hours is:
P=(A/V)*100%
P=[(210 cm^3)/(301.44 cm^3)]*100%
P=(0.696656051)*100%
P=69.66560510%
Rounded to the nearest percent
P=70%
Answer: 70%
2/10 basically means "2 divided by 10".
10 / 2 = .2
The answer to this problem is 48.
70 flowers were planted in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
Tulips = t
Daises = d
Lilies = l
Total tulips planted = 42
She planted 2 times as many tulips as daises.
t=2d
Putting t=42

Dividing both sides by 2

And 3 times as many daisies as lilies.
d=3l
Putting d=21

Dividing both sides by 3

Total flowers planted = Tulips + Daisies + Lilies
Total flowers planted = 42 + 21 + 7 = 70
70 flowers were planted in all.
