Answer:

600 minutes total

Step-by-step explanation:

Inch = 100

1/100 every minute

100/100 = 1 inch and 100 minutes

600/100 = 6 inch and 600 minutes

Answer:

y=-1/100x+6 or y=-1x+600

Step-by-step explanation:

6 inches is the Y intercept (600,0) if measuring by 1/100 or (6,0)

Since the wax is melting, the slope  is going to be negative

y=mx+6 or y=mx+600 either is fine and would yield the same results

y=-.01x+6, y=1/100x+6 or y=-1x+600

To explainn why 6 and 600 are both fine, 6 is measuring with full inches while the 600 is measuring with .01 inches. One graph will be full numbers while the other will be decimals.

Select all the true statements. A. Negative integers are rational numbers B. Mixed numbers are irrational numbers C. Decimal num
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The correct answer is A.; C.; E.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Negative integers are rational numbers because all integers are rational numbers, i.e. integers are a subset of rational numbers, making the statement correct.

B. Mixed numbers are rational numbers because they can be written in the form of a simple fraction and thus the statement B is wrong.

C. Decimal numbers that terminate, like 0.125, are rational numbers is true as they can be written as a simple fraction making the statement true.

D. Decimal numbers that go on forever with repeating patterns, like 4.272727..... are irrational numbers is false as they can also be represented by a simple function making them rationals.

E. Decimal numbers that go on forever with no repeating patterns are irrational numbers as they can never be written as a simple fraction making the statement E true.
