Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2y+3x=3
This represents a linear equation and the format for a linear equation is
y = mx+b
m = slope
b= y-intercept
we have to subtract 3x from both sides to make this the y=mx+b form
2y=-3x+3
and divide both sides by 2
y = (-3x+3)/2
3/2 or 1.5 is the y-intercept
the constant of a linear equation (or 3) is the y-intercept, if there is no constant then the y-intercept is 0

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)
Relationship is going to work out so 72728
The answer is
113.1 when rounded
