The answer is true.
1 Kilometer is 0.621371 miles
Assume that the rule connecting height of the candle to time is a linear one. If you do, then we have to find the equation of this line, and then use this equation to predict the height of the candle after 11 hours.
Two points on this line are (6,17.4) and (23, 7.2). The slope is thus
7.2-17.4 -6
m = --------------- = ----------- or -3/5.
23-6 10
Find the equation of the line. I'm going to use the slope-intercept formula:
y = mx + b => 7.2 = (-3/5)(23) + b. Solving for b, b = 21.
Now we know that y = (-3/5)x + 21
Let x=11 to predict the height of the candle at that time.
y = (-3/5)(11) + 21 = 14.4 inches (answer)
Answer:
The correct answer is -7.5 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Principle amount = 12000
Interest = 4320
time = ?
rate = 4.8 simple interest
Solution:
We know that simple Interest I = (P*t*r)/100
then t = I*100/p*r
putting values in formula:
t = 4320*100/4.8*12000
= 432000/57,600
= 7.5 years
15 because 10x4 is 40 divided by 2 is 20 and 20-5 =15
You would multiply by -4/3. That's cuz to get to 1, you have to cancel out the negative, with another negative. You then have to multiply by the reciprocal.
Hope this helps!
