Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

10 hours           x hours

-------------- = -------------

15 logs            9 logs

Using cross products

90 = 15x

Divide by 15

90/15 = 15x/15

6 = x

6 hours

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Jovie has maintained the fire burning with 15 logs for 10 hours.

● 15 => 10

Let's find how many hours do 9 logs keep the fire burning.

Let x be that time

● 9 => x

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● 15 => 10

● 9 => x

● 15 * x = 9×10

● 15x = 90

● x = 90/15

● x = 6

So the time that the fire will keep burning is 6 hours.

Answer:

D or answer 4                   y=-5/2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we can first start of by finding the y-intercept.

Note that when x=0, you can find your y-intercept.

Knowing this, and looking at the table, 7 is the y-intercept because when y=7, x=0.

So we can eliminate choices 'a' and 'c,' or answers 1 and 3, because they have the y-intercept as -7, when it's just 7.

Please know that in the equation:

y = mx + b

y = y-coordinate or any given point

mx = slope

b = y-intercept

Now we must find slope

To find the slope we need to do:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) or rise/run

The two coordinates I choose to use is (0, 7) and (6, -8).

(-8 - 7) / (6 - 0) = -5/2

-5/2 is the slope

Finally, look for an equation that has 7 as the y-intercept and -5/2 as the slope.

Answer: D or answer 4
