Let H be the number of hours that a candle will burn.
Let L be the length of the candle
Since the number of hours that a candle will burn increases when the length of the candle increases (thus having a direct relationship), then i think it's best to represent it as Lx = Hx.
If the length, then, is 2, then that means the 2x = Hx
You divide both sides by x
Then you get H=2.
Answer:
The ratios are not equal
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of dimes
y ----> the number of quarters
we know that
<em> Suri's coin purse</em>
x=6, y=4
The ratio of dimes to quarters is
<em> Martha's coin purse</em>
x=5, y=3
The ratio of dimes to quarters is
Compare the ratios
therefore
The ratios are not equal
Answer: -112
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Rate of lost money on an investment = $4 per day.
Since 1 week = 7 days
So, Amount of money she lost in 1 weeks = $ 4 x 7 = $28
⇒ Amount of money she lost in 4 weeks = $ 28 x 4 = $112
Since in integers, a loss is represented by negative integer.
So, Mrs. Rockwell lost $112 after 4 weeks which is represented by "-112" integers.
