3.In Andrew’s Furniture Shop, he assembles both bookcases and TV stands. Each type of furniture takes him about the same
...
s him about the same time to assemble. He figures he has time to make at most 18 pieces of furniture by this Saturday. The materials for each bookcase cost him $20.00 and the materials for each TV stand cost him $40.00. He has $600.00 to spend on materials. Andrew makes a profit of $60.00 on each bookcase and a profit of $100.00 for each TV stand. Find how many of each piece of furniture Andrew should make so that he maximizes his profit.
Using the information in the problem, write the constraints. Let x represent number of bookcases, and y represent number of TV stands.

5.3A(g) + X(g) → Z(g) ΔH° = -480 kJ/molrxn
The equation shown above represents an exothermic reaction between A(g)
...
reaction between A(g) and X(g). What is the amount of heat released when 10 mol of A(g) reacts with an excess X(g) ?
ΔH
A -236kJ
X -136kJ
Y -167kJ
Using the heats of formation found in the table above, calculate ΔH for the reaction below.
6A(aq) + 7X(g) → 6Y(l)
Y + 2X → 4Z ΔH=-4
A + 3B → 2Z ΔH=-2
A → X +C ΔH=7
Using the thermodynamic data above, determine ΔH for the reaction below.
2C+ 6B → Y
When 0.3 moles of A(s) (4 grams) is dissolved in 12 grams of water at 23°C, the temperature of the water increases to 31°C. The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C.
Calculate ΔH in kJ/mol. Report your answer to 1 decimal place.

7.I am trying to figure out the optimal radius that will give the lowest surface area of a cylinder. I
...
have done the calculus which reveals that the surface area is at a minimum when height is double the radius. I am now trying to find an equation for the relationship between the amount of wasted surface area as a percentage of the minimum surface area and the ratio between height and radius.
If I were to plot it on a graph, the y axis would be the percentage of excess materials needed as a percentage of the minimum possible surface area, and the x axis would be height divided by radius. Since the surface area is minimized when height=2(radius), I know that when x=2, y=0.
The website https://www.datagenetics.com/blog/august12014/index.html explains what I am trying to do quite well and shows the graph below. I am trying to find the equation for this graph, but am unsure how to go about it.

Co basically I've got this table in excel, where X (row) is a width and Y is a height (column) of a wooden sauna cabin, the X;Y is the price for a sauna with said dimensions. I need to find a relationship between the size of the sauna and the price And formulate ani equation. I can't seem to find it, the price seems to grow non linearly, I can't seem to find any coeficient. Again, I suck at math, maybe solution is simple, but I just don't see it. Can anyone help me please?

14.In a simple reaction A ↔ A*, a molecule is interconvertible between two forms that differ in standard free energy
...
ard free energy G° by 18 kJ/mole, with A* having the higher G°.
Use the table below to find how many more molecules will be in state A* compared with state A at equilibrium.
If an enzyme lowered the activation energy of the reaction by 11.7 kJ/mole, how would the ratio of A to A* change?
Table: RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE STANDARD FREE- ENERGY CHANGE, ∆G°, AND THE EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT
Hint: ∆G° represents the free-energy difference under standard conditions (where all components are present at a concentration of 1 mole/litter). From this table, we see that if there is a favourable free-energy change of –17.8 kJ/mole for the transition Y→ X, there will be 1000 times more molecules of X than of Y at equilibrium (K = 1000).

26.So I am looking at polar and Cartesian and converting between the two. My question is, I have never seen
...
seen an equation of a circle this is moved in both the x and y direction be converted to a polar equation.
For example, I know that the equation of a circle x^(2)+(y-2)^(2)=4 is r=4sin(theta) when converted to polar. Same thing for a translation with the x variable. However, I have never seen, nor do I know how to do, a conversion of a circle with both translations. For example, converting this equation of a circle to a polar equation: (x+3)^(2)+(y-4)^(2)=4. I have no idea how to do such a thing and cannot find any examples of such.
Hope you can shed some light on this, Thanks.

I make every rectangle know the 4 neighbouring rectangles in the map so starting from one you can generate an essentially infinite map.
I want to move this map around instead of moving the player around, the player stays centered on screen and since the map moves under him it looks like he's the one doing the moving.
So I know the following things:
Width and height of a single section:
5000X5000 pixels
the x and y location of the center section can be a value anywhere from -5000,-5000 to 5000,5000
The visible screen real estate is 1920 X 1080 pixels big
0X,0Y always stars top left, bottom right is 5000X5000
What I need to end up with:
A percentage value of howmuch this specific section is visible on screen, "inside the rectangle that is the scfeen)
