We have been given that a company makes wax candles in the shape of a solid sphere. Each candle has a diameter of 15 cm. We are asked to find the number of candles that company can make from 70,650 cubic cm of wax.

To solve our given problem, we will divide total volume of wax by volume of one candle.

Volume of each candle will be equal to volume of sphere.

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3, where r represents radius of sphere.

We know that radius is half the diameter, so radius of each candle will be \frac{15}{2}=7.5 cm.

\text{Volume of one candle}=\frac{4}{3}\cdot 3.14\cdot (7.5\text{ cm})^3

\text{Volume of one candle}=\frac{4}{3}\cdot 3.14\cdot 421.875\text{ cm}^3

\text{Volume of one candle}=1766.25\text{ cm}^3

Now we will divide 70,650 cubic cm of wax by volume of one candle.

\text{Number of candles}=\frac{70,650\text{ cm}^3}{1766.25\text{ cm}^3}

\text{Number of candles}=\frac{70,650}{1766.25}

\text{Number of candles}=40

Therefore, 40 candles can be made from 70,650 cubic cm of wax.

If each chip has a length of 35 nanometers (nm), how many would you need to circle the Earth. Which has a radius of 6,371 km? (S
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

1144.18 e-12 chips

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversation rate of nanometers

1 nanometers =1* 10^-12 km

35 nanometers= 35 *10^-12

Radius of earth= 6371 km

Circumference of earth = 2πr

Circumference= 2*22/7*6371

Circumference=40046.29 km

The number of chips to be used to circle the earth

= 40046.29/35 *10^-12

=1144.18 *10^-12

= 1144.18 e-12 chips

\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}&#10;\\\\&#10;A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}&#10;\quad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\&#10;P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$1000\\&#10;r=rate\to 3\%\to \frac{3}{100}\to &0.03\\&#10;n=&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;\textit{times it compounds per year}\\&#10;\textit{annually, thus once}&#10;\end{array}\to &1\\&#10;t=years\to &3&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;A=1000\left(1+\frac{0.03}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 3}\implies A=1000(1.03)^3

is that enough to pay the $1100?


now, let's write 1000(1+r)² in standard form

1000( 1² + 2r + r²)

1000(1 + 2r + r²)

1000 + 2000r + 1000r²

1000r² + 2000r + 1000   <---- standard form.
