Using a linear function, it is found that it will take 13 hours for the candle to burn down to a height of .25 inches.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
Considering the situation described, the y-intercept is of 10 while the slope is of -0.75, hence the height of the candle after t hours is given by:
h(t) = 10 - 0.75t
The height will be of 0.25 inches when h(t) = 0.25, hence:
0.25 = 10 - 0.75t
0.75t = 9.75
t = 9.75/0.75
t = 13 hours.

Answer:
The answer is "
".
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given question some data is missing. so, the correct answer to this can be explained in the following example:
In the given example, point D is also known as the coordinates in the (2, 5), and in the coordination of the D prime (D') and after translation its co-ordinates value is (-6, -2). Since the very first choice is only accurate as:
⇒2-8 = -6
⇒ 5-7 = -2
It can try certain things too and see why this alone is the correct translation.
