The end of the bar should end in the exact middle of 8 and 10.
Hope this helps! :)
Owen is aroumd 4.87 feet tall also.
Let t = number of hours
The first candle starts at 8 inches.
It burns at 7/10 inch per hour, so in t hours it burns (7/10)t inches.
After t hours, its length is 8 - (7/10)t
The second candle starts at 6 inches.
It burns at 1/5 inch per hour, so in t hours it burns (1/5)t inches.
After t hours, its length is 6 - (1/5)t
You want the lengths to be equal, so the equation is
8 - (7/10)t = 6 - (1/5)t
For this case we convert the mixed numbers to fractions:
Now we add the fractions:
We find the least common multiple of the denominators. The l.c.m is 8, then we divide by each denominator and multiply the result by each numerator.
8,375
Thus, the punch recipe implies 8.375 gallons. If we convert to a mixed number we have:
gallons
Answer:
gallons
Answer:
B. y = -1/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the answer is in point-slope intercept form, we know -1/2 is m. Also, because the equation is setting y equal to x, we know it goes through the origin.
