You look at the numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8inch per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we must observe is that the hourly rate for each candle is:

<em />

<em>scented candles: </em>

(1/12) / (20/60)

Simplifying:

= (1/12) / (10/30)

= (1/12) / (5/15)

= (1/12) / (1/3)

= (3/12)

= (1/4) inches / hour

<em>Unscented candles: </em>

(1/6) / (30/60)

Simplifying:

= (1/6) / (15/30)

= (1/6) / (3/6)

= (1/6) / (1/2)

= (2/6)

= (1/3) inches / hour

Answer:

The unscented candles burn faster at a rate of:

(1/3) inches / hour.

Write the equation of line AB in slope-intercept form, given the points A(0,5) and B(-5,-10) . In your final answer, include all
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

y = 3x + 5        

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope between the pair of points. Use the slope formula m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. Substitute the x and y values of points A and B into the formula and simplify:

m = \frac{(-10)-(5)}{(-5)-(0)} \\m  = \frac{-10-5}{-5-0} \\m = \frac{-15}{-5} \\m = 3

So, the slope is 3.

2) Now, identify the y-intercept of the line, or the point at which the line intersects the y-axis. All points on the y-axis have an x-value of 0. We're told that (0,5) is a point the line intersects, and since it has an x-value of 0, that must be the y-intercept.  

3) Using slope-intercept format, represented by the equation y = mx + b, write the equation of the line. Remember that the number in place of m, or the coefficient of the x-term, is the slope. So, substitute 3 for m. Also, remember that b represents the y-intercept of a line, so substitute 5 in its place, too. This gives the following answer:

y = 3x + 5

Find mGM if KP = PL and GH = 36 ft.​
Otrada [13]

Answer:

arc GM = 77°

Step-by-step explanation:

full circle = 360°

arc GMH = arc GNJ, so:

arc GMH = (360°- 52°)/2 = 154°

because line MP is perpendicular to line GH, arc GM = arc MH

arc GM = 154°/2 = 77°

Which graph shows the system 1 x++y=2 ? [x2 + y2 =9 ​
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The graph of the system in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

isolate the variable y

----> equation A

This is the equation of a vertical parabola open down (because the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

the vertex is the point (0,2)

---> equation B

This is the equation of a circle centered  at (0,0) with radius 3 units

The solution of the system of equations is the intersection points both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solutions are the points (-2.05,-2.19) and (2.05,-2.19)

see the attached figure
