The yard is 60ft * 80ft = 4800ft2.

One bag covers 100ft2.

4800ft2/100ft2/bag = 48 bags

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.

natka813 [3]

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of

the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.

Let x be the amount of time in hours

Let y be the heoght of a candle in centimeters

The two points are then as (9,24.5) and (23,17.5).

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:line\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:passing\:through\:}\left(9,\:24.5\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(23,\:17.5\right)$

$\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(9,\:24.5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(23,\:17.5\right)$

$m=\frac{17.5-24.5}{23-9}$

$m=-0.5$

$\mathrm{Plug\:the\:slope\:}-0.5\mathrm{\:into\:}y=mx+b$

$y=\left(-0.5\right)x+b$

$\mathrm{Plug\:in\:}\left(9,\:24.5\right)\mathrm{:\:}\quad \:x=9,\:y=24.5$

$24.5=\left(-0.5\right)\cdot \:9+b$

$-4.5+b=24.5$

$b=29$

$\mathrm{Construct\:the\:line\:equation\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:where\:}\mathbf{m}=-0.5\mathrm{\:and\:}\mathbf{b}=29$

$y=-0.5x+29$

Now plug in x=21, we get

$y=-0.5*21+29=18.5$

Thus the height of the candle after 21 hours is 18.5 centimeters.

A 20-gallon salt-water solution contains 15% pure salt. How much pure water should be added to it to produce a 10% solution?

Elanso [62]

15% of 20 gal = 0.15 * 20 gal = 3 gal, so the solution contains 3 gal of salt.

If we add x gal of water to the solution, we end up with (20 + x) gal of solution. We want the new mixture to have a concentration of 10%, or

10% of (20 + x) gal = 0.1 * (20 + x) gal = 2 + 0.1x gal

of salt.

The amount of salt in the tank hasn't changed. Solve for x :

2 + 0.1x = 3

0.1x = 1

x = 10 gal
