8 0
We must solve

8 -  \frac{7}{10}x = 6 -  \frac{1}{5}x \\ or \\ 80 - 7x = 60 - 2x \\ now \\ 20 = 5x \: so \: x = 4 \\
Means the candles will be the same size in 4 hours

Seven times a number is 5600. what is the number?
Vika [28.1K]
To do this you need to work backwards. if you note the number as 'n' you can put
 7n = 5600
to find n you simply divide both sides by 7 getting
n = 5600/7 
n = 800

Andre is setting up rectangle tables for a party. He can fit 6 chairs around a single table. Andre lined up 10 tables end to end
IRINA_888 [86]
If there is one table (t=1) then 6 chairs (c=6) can be placed around the table, 2 along the length on each side and 1 at each end.
When t=2, and the tables are end to end (joined at their width) c=10, that is, 4 chairs on each side of the double table and 1 at each end. Each time a table is added c increases by 4 so we can write c=4t+2 the constant 2 being the single chair at each end. If the tables are separated then c=6t.
