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:
1 : a set each of whose elements is an element of an inclusive set. 2 : division, portion a subset of our community.
Step-by-step explanation:
In mathematics, set A is a subset of a set B if all elements of A are also elements of B; B is then a superset of A. It is possible for A and B to be equal; if they are unequal, then A is a proper subset of B. The relationship of one set being a subset of another is called inclusion

The answer is very simple:
$50 multiplied by 2 (Cause it's 200%) equals to $100
$50 multiplied by 1,2 (Cause it's 120%) equals to $60
Then, you just do the substractions, so you get $40.

X=6y
sum of their reciprocals
(1/x)+(1/y)=7
x=6y
1/6y+1/y=7
1/6y+6/6y=7
7/6y=7
times both sides by 6y
7=42y
divide both sides by 42
1/6=y
x=6y
x=6(1/6)
x=6/6
x=1
the numbers are 1 and 1/6
