Assume that the rule connecting height of the candle to time is a linear one. If you do, then we have to find the equation of this line, and then use this equation to predict the height of the candle after 11 hours.
Two points on this line are (6,17.4) and (23, 7.2). The slope is thus
7.2-17.4 -6
m = --------------- = ----------- or -3/5.
23-6 10
Find the equation of the line. I'm going to use the slope-intercept formula:
y = mx + b => 7.2 = (-3/5)(23) + b. Solving for b, b = 21.
Now we know that y = (-3/5)x + 21
Let x=11 to predict the height of the candle at that time.
y = (-3/5)(11) + 21 = 14.4 inches (answer)
Answer:
a. T² - T¹ = d ( A. P) -5
b. T²/T¹ = r (G. P) 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 15 - 20 = -5
b. 15/20 = 3/4
Answer:
I need how much is it per one mile <em>or</em> how much does is cost every 5 mins at least
Answer:
d = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Give a₁₀ = 67 and a₁ = 4 , then
a₁ + 9d = 67
4 + 9d = 67 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
9d = 63 ( divide both sides by 9 )
d = 7
Number 3 is the correct answer
