Answer:
h = -t+20
After 8 hours the candle will be 12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 points (time, inches)
(3,17) and (5,15)
We can find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (15-17)/(5-3)
= -2/2
= -1
We can use point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Replace y with h and x with t
h-17 = -1 (t-3)
Distribute
h-17 = -t+3
Add 17 to each side
h-17+17 = -t+3+17
h = -t+20
To find the 7th term, all you have to do is plug it in the equation.
First n would equal 7 because we are looking for the 7th term.
Now, let's plug everything we know into the equation.
a7 = 2+5 * (7-1)
= 2 + 5 * 6
= 2 + 30
= 32
In conclusion, the 7th term would equal 32.
