L(t)=9-0.5t
t=time in hours,
L(t)=length of candle at time t
(A) substitute t=1,2,3,4,5,6 respectively to get
(1,8.5)
(2,8)
(3,7.5)
(4,7)
(5,6.5)
(6,6)
(B) it is a function because none of the x-values duplicate, (nor the y-values).
(C) If the rate changes to 0.45 "/hr, the relation is still linear.
All linear function with finite slope are functions.
To find a fraction's lowest term, just simplify them and divide to find the decimal form.
12/24 = 1/2, 0.5
3/30 = 1/10, 0.1
10/8 = 5/4, 1.25
34/20 = 17/10, 1.7
14/8 = 7/4, 1.75
Finished!
-2
Because -2(10x+3) is (-20x-6) when you distribute
