Answer:
The area of the roof: ≈2287.44 ft^2, the lateral area of the roof:≈1580.58 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the roof is computed by the equation of the area of a cone:
A = πr(r + 
)
(r: radius, h: height, πr^2 is the area of the base of the cone, πr is the lateral area of the cone). So:
A = 
≈ 2287.44 ft^2.
As I stated earlier, the lateral area of the roof can be computed:
A
=
≈ 1580.58 ft^2.
A.) Since there are no restrictions as to the dimensions of the candle except that their volumes must equal 1 cubic foot and that each must be a cylinder, we have the freedom to decide the candles' dimensions.
I decided to have the candles equal in volume. So, 1 cubic foot divided by 8 gives us 0.125 cubic foot, 216 in cubic inches.
With each candle having a volume of 216 cubic inches, I assign a radius to each: 0.5 in, 1.0 in, 1.5 in, 2.0 in, 2.5 in, 3.0 in, 3.5 in, and 4.0 in. Then, using the formula of the volume of a cylinder, which is:
V=pi(r^2)(h)
we then solve the corresponding height per candle. Let us let the value of pi be 3.14.
Hence, we will have the following heights (expressed to the nearest hundredths) for each of the radius: for
r=2.5 in: h=11.01 in
r=3.0 in: h= 7.64 in
r=3.5 in: h= 5.62 in
r=4.0 in: h= 4.30 in
r=4.5 in: h= 3.40 in
r=5.0 in: h= 2.75 in
r=5.5 in: h= 2.27 in
r=6.0 in: h= 1.91 in
b. each candle should sell for $15.00 each
($20+$100)/8=$15.00
c. yes, because the candles are priced according to the volume of wax used to make them, which in this case, is just the same for all sizes
State the given in the question
Given that the sum of a number and 3 is subtracted from, the result is 5
State what is to be found in the question
We are to find the number. In other to achieve this, we would follow the steps below:
Step 1: Represent the number with an unknown
Let x represent the number
Step 2: Interpret the given statement mathematically
If x is the number, then the sum of the number and 3 would be
Then the sum of a number and 3 subtracted from 10 would be
Finally, when the sum of a number and 3 subtracted from 10, the result is 5, would be
Step 3: Solve for x in the mathematical interpretation of the given statement
The value of x is as calculated as shown below:
Hence, the number is 5
