A) Function would be: (0, 9) (1, 8.5) (2, 8) (3, 7.5) (4, 7) (5, 6.5) (6, 6)

Increase x-coordinate by 1 at each instance (time is increasing in hours) and decrease y-coordinate by 0.5 (height is decreasing) 

B) Ordered Pairs: (0, 9) (1, 8.5) (2, 8) (3, 7.5) (4, 7) (5, 6.5) (6, 6)

As y-coordinate is not repeating for different x-values, "It is a Function"

C) Ordered Pairs: (0, 9) (1, 8.55) (2, 8.10), (3, 7.65), (4, 7.20), (5, 6.75)

Again, "It is a Function" as y-coordinate is not repeating for different y-'s. We've just decreased the y's, it doesn't affect x-coordinate, so the nature of our function won't change

Hope this helps!

<span>You can get those ordered pairs subtracting 9-0.5, then that result minus 0.5 because from the rate the candle reduces its height 0.5inches per each hour.Part B: Is this relation a function? Yes, because each value of x has a single result or output in “y” (image)Part C: Yes, only difference is the time, the candle reduces its height 0.45 inches per each hour, examples of ordered pairs:  (0,9)  (1,8.55) (2,8.1)</span>

Roberto and Maria Santanos spend approximately $11.50 per week to wash and dry their family's clothes at a local coin laundry. A
Elena L [17]

Answer:

68 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

1 week costs $11.50.

so, how many such weekly each cycles fit into the price of new machines ?

if they wait to long (to many weeks) they spend in total more money than buying a new machine.

but if they stay still below that max. number of weeks, they have at least the illusion that they are cheaper of with the weekly laundromat investment (but they forget, sooner or later they will need the new machines).

so the break even point is simply

782 / 11.5 = 68 weeks.

after 68 weeks it has cost them exactly the same amount of money, as if they had bought new machines right away at the beginning.

Two dice are rolled, find the probability that the sum is less than 13
Alex777 [14]
100% of the rolls would be less than 13. The highest number on one die is 6, so even if you roll 2 dice the sum of both dice will always be lower than 13.
It's a 1:1 probablility.

The value of x in the expression<br> 2x/3 - 7 = 5 is
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The answer is X = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

2x/3 - 7 = 5

Multiply both sides if the equation by 3 : 2x - 21 = 15

Move the constant to the right hand side and change its sign : 2x = 15 + 21

Calculate 2x = 15 + 21

2x = 36

Divide both sides of the eqaution by 2 : 2x = 36

x = 18

Answer X = 18
