Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the equation:

On the right combine like terms:

Subtract 18 from both sides. The right cancels:

Divide both sides by 3:

The answer is A, -11.
11.45
the 11 is ur whole number...it stays ur whole number
the 0.45 is ur fraction...and since the last number (5) is in the hundredths place, put it over 100
so u now have : 11 45/100 which reduces to 11 9/20 and if u need it in improper fraction form, it is 229/20
First keep in mind that the center is 5 inches...let L and R be the left and right positions of the two flames...
L=h and R=10-1.5h where h is in hours....
The two flames meet when L=R so we can say:
h=10-1.5h add 1.5h to both sides
2.5h=10 divide both sides by 2.5
h=4
So the flames will meet in five hours, using either original equation we can find this position, I'll use L=h..
L=4
So the position of the flames is 4" from the end. The questions ask how far this point is from the center so:
5-4=1"
So the flames meet 1 inch from the center.
