Answer:
(a) Number of inches that have burned from the candle since it was lit is (1.1t) inches
(b) The remaining length of the candle is (16 - 1.1t) inches
Step-by-step explanation:
(a). Length of candle before it was lit = 16 inches
Constant rate at which at which candle burns = 1.1 inches per hour
Let t represent the number of hours that have elapsed since the candle was lit
In 1 hour, 1.1 inches of the candle burned
Therefore, in t hours, (1.1t) inches of the candle would have burned since the candle was lit
(b) Remaining length of candle = length of candle before it was lit - length of candle that have burned = 16 inches - 1.1t inches = (16 - 1.1t) inches
Answer:
Easy
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter, add all the sides together.
12+16+20=48
To find the area, you multiply the sides that make the right angle of the triangle,
12×16=192
And divide it by two. This step is important as if you don't divide it by two, you will end up with the area of a square.
192÷2=96
Finito. Oh and don't forget to add units.
Cm for perimeter and Cm(squared) for area. :)

18 ÷ 2 = 9
Answer:
(4,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x - 4 -------eqn 1
4y = x + 12 ------eqn 2
From eqn 1 y = 2x - 4; insert in eqn 2
4 (2x-4) = x + 12 (open the bracket)
8x - 16 = x + 12 (taking like figures to the same side, sign changes)
8x - x = 12 + 16
7x = 28
x = 28/7
x = 4
From eqn 1
y = 2x - 4
y = 2(4) - 4
y = 8 - 4
y = 4
(x,y) = (4,4)
