Answer:

Gerry arrived at the bus station at 12:30 P.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

From noon and 5:00 P.M. there are 5 hours.

Gerry, Dale, and Pat arrived at the bus stop within that interval, which means the sum of the times elapsed between their arrival times must be 5.

4 out of the 5 hours elapsed since Gerry and Dale's arrivals. This means there is only one hour left for twice x.

If twice x is one hour, then x is half an hour. Thus, the complete sequence of arrivals is:

Gerry arrived at the bus station at 12:30 P.M.

Dale arrived at the bus station at 4:30 P.M.

Pat arrived at the bus station at 5:00 P.M.

A candle manufacturer sells cylindrical candles in sets of three. Each candle in the set is a different size. The smallest candl

dem82 [27]

Answer:

A. 27 π cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula;

$Volume=\pi r^2h$

From the given information, the smallest candle has a radius of 0.5 inches and a height of 3 inches.

We substitute $r=0.5$ and $h=3$ into the given formula.

The vlume of the smallest candle is

$Volume=\pi \times0.5^2\times 3$

$Volume=\frac{3}{4}\pi in^3$

from the given information, the other two candles are scaled versions of the smallest, with scale factors of 2 and 3.

The volume of the other two candles will be $2^3\times \frac{3}{4}\pi=6\pi in^3$ and $3^3\times \frac{3}{4}\pi=\frac{81}{4}\pi in^3$

The wax needed to create one set of candle is

$\frac{3}{4}\pi+6\pi+\frac{81}{4}\pi=27\pi\: in^3$

The correct answer is A

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 24 meters (use 3.14 for Pi)?

Zarrin [17]

The area of a circle is represented by the equation:

$A=\pi r^{2}$

We know that the diameter is two times the radius: $d=2r$

So if we know that the diameter of the circle is 24m, we can divide this by two in order to get the radius:

$24m=2r$ --> $r=12m$

So then we can plug this radius in to the equation for the area of a circle:

$A=\pi (12)^{2}$

$A=144\pi$

We are told to use 3.14 as pi, and not pi itself, so let's plug in 3.14 for pi:

$A=3.14(144)$

$A=452.16m^{2}$

Now we know that the area of this circle is 452.16 square meters.
