A rectangular container can hold 45 candles, while a cylindrical container holds 41 candles. Each rectangular container costs th
Delvig [45]

Answer: Rectangular container is preferred to minimize the costs and  there are 142 rectangular container is needed to pack 6400 candles.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of candles in a rectangular container = 45

Number of candles in a cylindrical container = 41

Cost of each rectangular container = $15

Cost of each cylinder container = $16

That means ,

In case of rectangular container,

Cost of 45 candles = $15

Cost of 1 candle is given by

\frac{15}{45}=\frac{1}{3}=\$0.33

Similarly,

In case of cylindrical container,

Cost of 41 candles = $16

Cost of 1 candle is given by

\frac{16}{41}=\$0.39

So, if the company needs to package 6,400 candles , it should use <u>rectangular containers </u>to minimize costs.

Number of candle he need to pack = 6400

Number of rectangular container for 6400 candles is given by

\frac{6400}{45}=142.2=142\ approximately.

Hence, there are 142 rectangular container is needed to pack 6400 candles.

A farmer sells 6.5 kilograms of pears and apples at the farmer's market. 3/4 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. Ho
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

1.625 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Since total weight of pears and apples is 6.5 kilograms and 3/4 of this weight is pears, the weight of the pears is

→ 6.5 x 3/4 = 4.875 kilograms

Since the weight of the pears is 4.875, we can subtract it from the total weight to find the weight of the apples

→ 6.5 - 4.875 = 1.625 kilograms

A gardener wants to replant a circular bare spot in a yard with grass. The bare spot has a radius of 8 inches. What is the area
ch4aika [34]

The area of the bare spot the gardener needs to replant is 201 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the area of the circular bare spot

Given

Radius of bare spot = r = 8 inches

The formula for area of a circle is given by:

Area=A = \pi r^2

putting the value

A = 3.14 * (8)^2\\= 3.14 * 64\\=200.96

Rounding off to nearest foot

201 ft^2

Hence,

The area of the bare spot the gardener needs to replant is 201 square feet

Keywords: Area, radius
