An ancient Chinese candle clock tells the amount of time that has passed by the amount of wax that has been melted off the candl

maxonik [38]

Answer:

$Time = 560\ mins$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Candles = 2$ --- candles melted

$Divisions = 12$

$Time = 4\ hrs$ --- time to melt

Required

The time since the first was lit

If 1 candle melts in 4 hours, 2 candles will melt in 8 hours.

i.e.

$x = Candles * Time$

$x = 2 * 4hrs$

$x = 8hrs$

For the 3rd candle that has melted, 4 inches

First, calculate the fraction that melt

$Fraction = \frac{Melt}{Division}$

$Fraction = \frac{4}{12}$

$Fraction = \frac{1}{3}$

The time to melt is:

$y = Fraction * Time$

$y= 4 * \frac{1}{3}$

$y= \frac{4}{3}hrs$

So, the required time is:

$Time = x + y$

$Time = 8hrs + \frac{4}{3}hrs$

Convert to minutes

$Time = 8*60mins + \frac{4}{3}*60mins$

$Time = 480mins + 80mins$

$Time = 560\ mins$

Which inequality can be used to represent a number x that is less than equal to 8 and greater than -3

KIM [24]

Answer: x = -2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

Solution:

A number line is used to represent the possible numbers that x can be.

x that is less than equal to 8 >>>> x ≤ 8

x is greater than -3 >>>> x > -3

So it will be represented as,

-3 < x ≤ 8

So all the numbers between -3 and 8 including eight (because it has the equal sign)

-2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
