2 ways in solving this hope it helped
L(t)=9-0.5t
t=time in hours,
L(t)=length of candle at time t
(A) substitute t=1,2,3,4,5,6 respectively to get
(1,8.5)
(2,8)
(3,7.5)
(4,7)
(5,6.5)
(6,6)
(B) it is a function because none of the x-values duplicate, (nor the y-values).
(C) If the rate changes to 0.45 "/hr, the relation is still linear.
All linear function with finite slope are functions.
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 
on both sides and subtract 
on both sides to leave x's on the left side and independent values on the right.
Solve the fractions.
Convert the mixed fraction 
to an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying 1 times 35 and adding 2.
Now use the reciprocal (inverse fraction) and multiply on both sides to isolate x.
Let the number of green apples and red apples be 8x and 3x respectively.
Given: 8x-3x =35
=> 5x =35 => x=7
Hence there are 8x=56 green apples and 3x=21 red apples.Ans.
