Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of
the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.
Let x be the amount of time in hours
Let y be the heoght of a candle in centimeters
The two points are then as (9,24.5) and (23,17.5).














Now plug in x=21, we get

Thus the height of the candle after 21 hours is 18.5 centimeters.
Answer:
Dilation followed by Translation.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the function
.
The new transformed function is 
Now, the transformation applied to f(x) to obtain g(x) are:
1. Dilation - it is the transformation that changes the size/shape of the figure. It is generally of the form kf(x) where k is constant.
Since, we are dilating the given function by 2 units, the new dilated function becomes
.
2. Translation - it is the transformation that shifts the figure in any direction. When the function is shifted vertically, the general form becomes f(x)+k.
As, we see that the new dilated function is shifted 3 units upwards, the final translated function becomes
.
Hence, the transformations applied to obtain g(x) from f(x) are Dilation followed by Translation.
Answer: $16,200
Step-by-step explanation:
rent.
Raise of 2.5% (0.025)/year.
5 years.
Take the rent (14,400) and add 2.5% (0.025) of it (14400) for five (5) years.


Answer:
2.21073919x10^23
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the Negative Exponent Rule. Negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the denominator and become positive exponents. Negative exponents in the denominator get moved to the numerator and become positive exponents.
