a pillar candle is shaped like a cylinder with a radius of 1.5 inches. the candle holds 123 cubic inches of wax. how tall is the candle? use 3.14 for pi. round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
12.50 in
15.76 in
17.41 in
18.76 in

 The correct option is (C) 17.41 in.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a pillar candle is shaped like a cylinder with a radius of 1.5 inches and the candle holds 123 cubic inches of wax.

We are to find the height of the candle.

We know that the VOLUME of a cylinder with radius r units and height h units is given by

For the given cylindrical candle, we have

radius, r = 1.5 inches

and

VOLUME, V = 123 cubic inches.

height, h = ?

We have

Rounding to nearest hundredth, h = 17.41 in.

Thus, the Candle is 17.41 inches tall.

Option (C) is CORRECT.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
