<em>Question</em>
- <em>Lisa lit a candle with a height of 8 inches. When lit, this candle loses 10% of its original height every hour. </em>
- <em>Please complete the following sentence by writing the number in the blank.
Until the candle has been burning for at least _______ hours, the height of Jennifer's candle will be more than 7 inches.</em>
<u>Candle looses 10% of 8 inches, it equals:</u>
- 8*0.1 = 0.8 inches an hour
<u>Let x be required time, then:</u>
- 8 - 0.8x > 7
- 0.8x < 8 - 7
- 0.8x < 1
- x < 1/0.8
- x < 1.25
- or 1 hour 15 minutes
-625
use long multiplication to evaluate .
100% = 1600
120% = 1920
1920/120 = 1536/y
1920y = <span>184320 (cross multiply)
y = 96%
decrease of 24% from 1920</span>
The answer is that 21 will be greater than minus one
