Elio makes candles that are 14cm. Each candle burns 8 hours before going out. He is wondering how many hours a 21 cm tall candle

can burn for. He assumes that the relationship between the height of a candle and number of hours it burns (h), is proportional.

Elio is right in assuming the relationship between the height and the hours it burns is proportional.

Find the unit rate

14 ÷ 8 = 1.75 cm/h

Divide

21 ÷ 1.75 = 12

You can set this up as an algebraic equation to check the answer.

If the candle is 21 cm tall, it will burn for 12 hours.

Add each term and divide it by 2.


5+7 = 12

12/2 = 6

-2 + 6 = 4

4/2 = 2, then add the i back on to get 2i.


The midpoint is 6 + 2i

Answer:

D. Yes; the graph passes the vertical line test.

Step-by-step explanation:

→The vertical line test is when you hold something (like a pencil), straight up/vertically, and you move it from left-to-right to see if any two points repeat.

<u>→The correct answer is "D. Yes; the graph passes the vertical line test,"</u> because the x-values can't repeat, not the y-values, if the graph were to show a function. In this case, the graph passes the vertical line test.
