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:
272
Step-by-step explanation:
note that (f • g)(x) = f(x) × g(x) = (3x - 7)(4x - 5)
To evaluate substitute x = 3 into (3x - 7)(4x - 5)
(f • g)(- 3) = (- 9 - 7)(- 12 - 5) = - 16 × - 17 = 172
The correct answer is <u><em>
</em></u>
Hope this helps!!!
A. has 3 number that give it value
b. has 4 (even 0 add to its value)
c. has 3
D. has only 2
e. has 2 , both number add value
f. has 4 value
g also has 4, all numbers give value
hope this helps
