Let t = number of hours
The first candle starts at 8 inches.
It burns at 7/10 inch per hour, so in t hours it burns (7/10)t inches.
After t hours, its length is 8 - (7/10)t
The second candle starts at 6 inches.
It burns at 1/5 inch per hour, so in t hours it burns (1/5)t inches.
After t hours, its length is 6 - (1/5)t
You want the lengths to be equal, so the equation is
8 - (7/10)t = 6 - (1/5)t

Answer:
x =53.85
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price
If the price is 22% of, you will pay 100% -22% = 78%
x * 78% = 42

78x = 42
Divide each side by .78.
78x/.78 = 42/.78
Rounding to the nearest cent
x =53.85
