Answer:

18 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that 15cm burns in 6 hours. That means that for every 15cm that burns after that, it will be another 6 hours for each.

This gives us the means to find out how long it takes for the 45 cm candle to burn.

We want to know how many 15 cm candles fit into this 45 cm candle. To do this, we must divide: 45 ÷ 15 in order to find how how many 15 cm and 6 hour-burning candles make up the 45 cm candle

45 ÷ 15 = 3, so 3 candles, each of which take 6 hours to burn, fit into the candle

Now, all we have to do is multiply 6 by 3 in order to find out how many hours it takes for 3 candles to burn!

6 • 3 = 18, so it will take 18 hours for the candle to burn

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between points A and B.
irinina [24]

Answer:          

  Properties of a right tangle can be created in  a Coordinate Plane

  Distance between two points A and B are shown as below

Step-by-step explanation:

Find distance between two point using Pythagorean Theorem.

Properties of right triangles and creating right triangle as a coordinate Plane.

Suppose two point are drawn in triangle containing value of  (-2 , 4 ) and (-2, -2)

then

In (-2 , 4 ) and (-2,-2)

taking y-values that is  4 and -2

find difference between them such as

    4-(-2) = 6

Distance is (-2,4) is 6 unit from (-2,-2)

We can also find unit length of A and B

Side A:   (-1, 2) and (3,2)

      3-(-2)  = 5

side A is 5 unit in length

Side B : (-2,2) and (-2,-1)

      2 - (-1) = 3

Side B is 3 unit in length
