Answer:
The age of Sue could be 7 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Jenny is 8 years older than twice her cousin Sue's age.
The first equation will be :
J = 8 + 2S ---------(1)
The sum of their ages is less than 32.
The second equation will be :
J + S < 32 ----------------(2)
Now rearrange both equations :
8 + 2S + S < 32
3S < 32 - 8
3S < 24
S < 24/3
S < 8
S = 7
The age of Sue could be 7 years.
Answer:
5in by 5in by 5in
Step-by-step explanation:
We are not told wat to find but we can as well find the dimension of the prism that will minimize its surface area.
Given
Volume = 125in³
Formula
V = w²h ..... 1
S = 2w²+4wh ..... 2
w is the side length of the square base
h is the height of the prism
125 = w²h
h = 125/w² ..... 3
Substitute eqn 3 into 2 as shown
S = 2w²+4wh
S = 2w²+4w(125/w²)
S = 2w²+500/w
To minimize the surface area, dS/dw = 0
dS/dw =4w-500/w²
0= 4w-500/w²
Multiply through by w²
0 = 4w³-500
-4w³ = -500
w³ = 500/4
w³ =125
w = cuberoot(125)
w = 5in
Get the height
125 =w²h
125 = 25h
h = 125/25
h = 5in
Hence the dimension of the prism is 5in by 5in by 5in
The answer is 36 because i divided 8 to 4 so it would serve 2 people then multiplied by three to get 12 and that served 6 people so then multiplied by 3 to get 18 so u would need 36 cakes
