You need to prepare for your meeting with the BeeSwaks executives by writing and graphing functions so that you can compare the volumes and resulting production costs of each candle. The BeeSwaks executives want to see detailed support for the calculations done by their production staff, so you should come armed with labeled graphs and worked-out equations to support them. Q1:Use your equations from Lesson 1 for the Brick candle and the Egyptian candle to create a graph of two polynomial functions so that you can compare volumes for different values of x. Compare the volumes.

My equations from lesson 1 were x^3-x^2 for the brick, and 7x^2 for the Egyptian.

Q2:Use the graph from Question 1 to identify where the volumes are equal. Confirm this value by writing and solving an equation that describes the difference between the volumes of the candle types.

Q3: The same wax will be used to make each candle, and it costs of 1¢ per cubic centimeter. Write polynomial functions to show the cost of the wax that is used for making each candle for different values of x. Graph the functions. Discuss the costs.

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.  

v = 1/3 a^2h

step-by-step explanation:

the volume is 1/3 a^2h.

i think the length is 12 and the width is 17
