63.565 inch³
Step-by-step explanation:
A candle manufacturer sells cylindrical candles in sets of three.
Each candle in the set is of different size.
Smallest candle has a radius of [tex]r_{1}[/tex] = 0.5 inches and a height of [tex]h_{1}[/tex] = 3 inches.
other two candles are with scale factors of 2 and 3.
It means radius and height for second candle are [tex]r_{2}[/tex] = 0.5 × 2 = 1 inch and [tex]h_{2}[/tex] = 3 × 2 = 6 inches.
Radius and height of third candle are [tex]r_{3}[/tex] = 0.5 × 3 = 1.5 inch and [tex]h_{3}[/tex] = 2 × 3 = 6 inches
Now we have to calculate the amount of wax needed to create one set of candles.
Volume of Candle 1 = [tex]\pi r_{1}^{2}h_{1}[/tex]
= [tex]\pi (0.5)^{2}(3) = 3.14(0.25)(3)=2.355inches^{3}[/tex]
Volume of Candle 2 = [tex]\pi r_{2}^{2}h_{2}^[2][/tex]
= [tex]\pi (1)^{2} (6)=(3.14(6)=18.84inch^{3}[/tex]
Volume of Candle 3 = [tex]\pi r_{3}^{2}h_{3}^[2][/tex]
= [tex](3.14)(1.5)^{2}(6)=42.39inch^{3}[/tex]
Total quantity of wax = Volume (1) + volume (2) + volume (3)
= 2.355 + 18.84 + 42.39 = 63.565 inch³
63.565 inch³ wax is needed to create one set of candles.
A is the answer for your question
86 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
It is possible to suppose that the candles have a perfect cylindrical form.
The volume of a cylinder with radius r and height h is:
Knowing the dimensions of each candle it is possible to calculate the total volume required. Due to the scale data, the dimensions of each candle is:
C1: (r=0.5 inches, h=3 inches)
C1: (r=1 inches, h=6 inches)
C1: (r=1.5 inches, h=9 inches)
So, the total volume may be calculated as:
Vt≈86 cubic inches
So, the smallest candle has a radius r = 0.5 and a height of h = 3.
now, the other two candles in the set, are scaled of 2(twice as large) and of 3(thrice as large).
therefore, the candle scaled at 2 has a radius of 2*0.5 or 1, and a height of 2*3 or 6.
and the last candle in the set scaled t 3 has a radius of 3*0.5 or 1.5, and a height of 3*3, or 9
[tex]\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\ V=\pi r^2 h\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ \stackrel{r=0.5~~h=3}{\pi \cdot 0.5^2\cdot 3}~~~+~~~\stackrel{r=1~~h=6}{\pi \cdot 1^2\cdot 6}~~~+~~~\stackrel{r=1.5~~h=9}{\pi \cdot 1.5^2\cdot 9} \\\\\\ 0.75\pi ~~~+~~~6\pi ~~~+~~~20.25\pi \implies 27\pi[/tex]
Amount of wax required = 508.93 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume = Base area x Height.
The smallest candle has a radius of 0.5 inches and a height of 3 inches.
The other two candles are scaled versions of the smallest, with scale factors of 2 and 3
Radius of other candles = 0.5 x 2 and 0.5 x 3
= 1 inch and 1.5 inch
Height of other candles = 3 x 2 and 3 x 3
= 6 inch and 9 inch
Base area of cylinder
[tex]A = \pi \: {r}^{2}[/tex]
Volume of candles
[tex]V=\pi r_1^2h_1+\pi r_2^2h_2+\pi r_3^2h_3\\\\V=\pi \times 0.5^2\times 3+\pi \times 1^2\times 6+\pi \times 1.5^2\times 9=503.98inch^3 \\[/tex]
Amount of wax required = 508.93 cubic inches
A is the answer let me know if that was right
Step-by-step explanation:
8.5inches of wax is needed to make the candles.

b
Step-by-step explanation:
dont trust me could be wrong
A. 27 π cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula;
[tex]Volume=\pi r^2h[/tex]
From the given information, the smallest candle has a radius of 0.5 inches and a height of 3 inches.
We substitute [tex]r=0.5[/tex] and [tex]h=3[/tex] into the given formula.
The vlume of the smallest candle is
[tex]Volume=\pi \times0.5^2\times 3[/tex]
[tex]Volume=\frac{3}{4}\pi in^3[/tex]
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 [tex]2^3\times \frac{3}{4}\pi=6\pi in^3[/tex] and [tex]3^3\times \frac{3}{4}\pi=\frac{81}{4}\pi in^3[/tex]
The wax needed to create one set of candle is
[tex]\frac{3}{4}\pi+6\pi+\frac{81}{4}\pi=27\pi\: in^3[/tex]
The correct answer is A
