I am very gratefully thanked to God, finally I have done my Additional Mathematics Project work 2/2011. Firstly thanks to the school principal Tuan Hj. Zaini bin Zair for giving a permission on doing this project. Next, thanks to Mdm. Chin Siau Ling for helping me on completing this project. I am also wanted to appreciate my friends on giving me supports and friendly advice to give me a boost on doing this project. Lastly, not forgetting my family especially my parents, thanks for giving me support in money and also advice so that I can complete this project.

Part I
Question: Cakes come in a variety of forms and flavours and are among favourite desserts served during special occasions such as birthday parties, Hari Raya, weddings and etc. Cakes are treasured not only because of their wonderful taste but also in the art of cake baking and cake decorating. Find out how mathematics is used in cake baking and cake decorating and write about your findings. Answer: Geometry - To determine suitable dimensions for the cake, to assist in designing and decorating cakes that comes in many attractive shapes and designs, to estimate volume of cake to be produced Calculus (differentiation) To determine minimum or maximum amount of ingredients for cake-baking, to estimate minimum or maximum amount of cream needed for decorating, to estimate minimum or maximum size of cake produced. Progressions To determine total weight or volume of multi-storey cakes with proportional dimensions, to estimate total ingredients needed for cake-baking, to estimate total amount of cream for decoration.

Part II
Question: Best Bakery shop received an order from your school to bake a 5 kg of round cake as shown in Diagram 1 for the Teachers Day celebration. (Diagram 11)

d cm

1.

If a kilogram of cake has a volume of 3800

, and the height of the cake is to be

7.0cm, calculate the diameter of the baking tray to be used to fit the 5 kg cake ordered by your school. [Use = 3.142] Answer: Volume of 5kg cake = Base area of cake x Height of cake

3800 x 5 = (3.142)( ) x 7

(3.142) = ( )

863.872 = ( )

= 29.392

d = 58.784 cm

Questions: 2. The cake will be baked in an oven with inner dimensions of 80.0 cm in length, 60.0 cmin width and 45.0 cm in height.

a. If the volume of cake remains the same, explore by using different values of heights,h cm, and the corresponding values of diameters of the baking tray to be used,d cm. Tabulate your answers

Answer (a): First, form the formulae for d in terms of h by using the formulae that is used in question 1 for volume of cake, V = 19000, that is:

19000 = (3.142)( )h =

= d

d=

Height,h (cm) 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 7.0 8.0 9.0 10.0

Diameter,d(cm) 155.53 109.97 89.79 77.76 69.55 63.49 58.78 54.98 51.84 49.18

(b) Based on the values in your table, i. state the range of heights that is NOT suitable for the cakes and explain your answers. Answer b(i.): h < 7cm is NOT suitable, because the resulting diameter produced is too large to fit into the oven. Furthermore, the cake would be too short and too wide, making it less attractive.

ii.

suggest the dimensions that you think most suitable for the cake. Give reasons for your answer.

Answer b(ii): h = 8cm, d = 54.99cm, because it can fit into the oven, and the size is suitable for easy handling.

(c) i. Form an equation to represent the linear relation between h and d. Hence, plot a suitable graph based on the equation that you have formed. [You may draw your graph with the aid of computer software.]

Answer c(i): 19000 = (3.142)( )h

19000/(3.142)h =

c) (ii) a. If Best Bakery received an order to bake a cake where the height of the cake is 10.5 cm, use your graph to determine the diameter of the round cake pan required. Answer c(ii)(a): h = 10.5cm, log h = 1.021, log d = 1.680, d = 47.86cm b. If Best Bakery used a 42 cm diameter round cake tray, use your graph to estimate the height of the cake obtained. Answer c(ii)(b): d = 42cm, log d = 1.623, log h = 1.140, h = 13.80cm

Question: 3) Best Bakery has been requested to decorate the cake with fresh cream. The thickness of the cream is normally set to a uniform layer of about 1cm a. Estimate the amount of fresh cream required to decorate the cake using the dimensions that you have suggested in 2(b)(ii).

Answer 3(a):

h = 8cm, d = 54.99cm Amount of fresh cream = VOLUME of fresh cream needed (area x height) Amount of fresh cream = Vol. of cream at the top surface + Vol. of cream at the side surface

Vol. of cream at the top surface = Area of top surface x Height of cream = (3.142)( = 2375 cm ) x 1

Vol. of cream at the side surface = Area of side surface x Height of cream = (Circumference of cake x Height of cake) x Height of cream = 2(3.142)(54.99/2)(8) x 1 = 1382.23 cm

Therefore, amount of fresh cream = 2375 + 1382.23 = 3757.23 cm

10

b. Suggest three other shapes for cake, that will have the same height and volume as those suggested in 2(b)(ii). Estimate the amount of fresh cream to be used on each of the cakes.

Answer3(b):

1 Rectangle-shaped base (cuboid)

19000 = base area x height base area = length x width = 2375 By trial and improvement, 2375 = 50 x 47.5 (length = 50, width = 47.5, height = 8)

Therefore, volume of cream = 2(Area of left/right side surface)(Height of cream) + 2(Area of front/back side surface)(Height of cream) + Volume of top surface = 2(8 x 50)(1) + 2(8 x 47.5)(1) + 2375 = 3935 cm

11

2 Triangle-shaped base

19000 = base area x height base area = 2375 x length x width = 2375 length x width = 4750 By trial and improvement, 4750 = 95 x 50 (length = 95, width = 50) Slant length of triangle = Therefore, amount of cream = Area of rectangular front side surface(Height of cream) + 2(Area of slant rectangular left/right side surface)(Height of cream) + Volume of top surface = (50 x 8)(1) + 2(98.23 x 8)(1) + 2375 = 4346.68 cm = 98.23

12

3 Pentagon-shaped base

19000 = base area x height base area = 2375 = area of 5 similar isosceles triangles in a pentagon therefore: 2375 = 5(length x width) 475 = length x width By trial and improvement, 475 = 25 x 19 (length = 25, width = 19)

Therefore, amount of cream = 5(area of one rectangular side surface)(height of cream) + vol. of top surface = 5(8 x 19) + 2375 = 3135 cm

c. Based on the values that you have found which shape requires the least amount of fresh cream to be used?

Answer 3(c):

Pentagon-shaped cake, since it requires only 3135 cm of cream to be used.

Part III
Question:

Find the dimension of a 5 kg round cake that requires the minimum amount of fresh cream to decorate. Use at least two different methods including Calculus. State whether you would choose to bake a cake of such dimensions. Give reasons for your answers.

Answer:

Method 1: Differentiation Use two equations for this method: the formula for volume of cake (as in Question 2a.), and the formula for amount of volume of cream to be used for the round cake (as in Question 3a.). 19000 = (3.142)r h (1) V = (3.142)r + 2(3.142)rh (2) From (1): h = Sub. (3) into (2): V = (3.142)r + 2(3.142)r( ) (3)

V = (3.142)r + ( V = (3.142)r + 38000r-1

) = 2(3.142)r (

0 = 2(3.142)r (

minimum value, therefore

=0

= 2(3.142)r

= r 6047.104 = r
14

r = 18.22

Substitute r = 18.22 into (3): h= h = 18.22 therefore, h = 18.22cm, d = 2r = 2(18.22) = 36.44cm

Method 2: Quadratic Functions Use the two same equations as in Method 1, but only the formula for amount of cream is the main equation used as the quadratic function. Let f(r) = volume of cream, r = radius of round cake: 19000 = (3.142)r h (1) f(r) = (3.142)r + 2(3.142)hr (2) From (2): f(r) = (3.142)(r + 2hr) -->> factorize (3.142) = (3.142)[ (r + ) ( ) ] -->> completing square, with a = (3.142), b = 2h and c = 0

= (3.142)[ (r + h) h ] = (3.142)(r + h) (3.142)h (a = (3.142) (positive indicates min. value), min. value = f(r) = (3.142)h, corresponding value of x = r = --h)

Sub. r = --h into (1): 19000 = (3.142)(--h)h h = 6047.104 h = 18.22

Sub. h = 18.22 into (1): 19000 = (3.142)r(18.22) r = 331.894 r = 18.22 therefore, h = 18.22 cm, d = 2r = 2(18.22) = 36.44 cm

15

I would not choose to bake a cake with such dimension because of its height is to high therefore it will be less attractive. Moreover, with that such of dimensions it will be difficult to handle.

FURTHER EXPLORATION
Question: Best Bakery received an order to bake a multi-storey cake for Merdeka Day celebration, as shown in Question paper Diagram 2. The height of each cake is 6.0 cm and the radius of the largest cake is 31.0 cm. The radius of the second cake is 10% less than the radius of the first cake, the radius of the third cake is10% less than the radius of the second cake and so on.(a) a. Find the volume of the first, the second, the third and the fourth cakes. By comparing all these values, determine whether the volumes of the cakes form a number pattern? Explain and elaborate on the number patterns. Answer: height, h of each cake = 6cm radius of largest cake = 31cm radius of 2nd cake = 10% smaller than 1st cake radius of 3rd cake = 10% smaller than 2nd cake

31, 27.9, 25.11, 22.599

a = 31, r = V = (3.142)rh Radius of 1st cake = 31, volume of 1st cake = (3.142)(31)(6) = 18116.772 Radius of 2nd cake = 27.9, vol. of 2nd cake = 14674.585 Radius of 3rd cake = 25.11, vol. of 3rd cake = 11886.414 Radius of 4th cake = 22.599, vol. of 4th cake = 9627.995 18116.772, 14674.585, 11886.414, 9627.995,

a = 18116.772, ratio, r = T2/T1 = T3 /T2 = = 0.81

b.

If the total mass of all the cakes should not exceed 15 kg, calculate the maximum number of cakes that the bakery needs to bake. Verify your answer using other methods.

Answer:

Sn =

Sn = 57000, a = 18116.772 and r = 0.81

57000 =

1 0.81n = 0.59779 0.40221 = 0.81n

og0.81 0.40221 = n

n=

n = 4.322 therefore, n 4

REFLECTION
Although it is hard on completing this work because I am not good at Add Math, but now I realise that if I want to succeed I must push myself and not whining about how hard to solve an answer. With teachers and my friend are there to support me, I should not be worried about my weakness and just try my best. This is my poetry I had made.... Additional Mathematics, Are you as easy as a click, Do u become easier as we speak, You are the one I seek, you are the one I need.

Since I ever heard of you, I become afraid of you, but when I know you, You attract me out of the blue.

with You, although it hard to be right, I try my best not to be out of sight, with my teachers to show the light, and practices at night now I shall see the light. And it is so bright...
