Answer:
Both candles will have the same height after 4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the amount of candle remaining can be given by the following equations:

In which Q(t) is the amount after t hours, Q(0) is the initial amount and a is how much it decreases, in inches, per hour.
Red candle:
8 inches tall and burns at a rate of 7 divided by 10 inch per hour. This means that
. So

Blue candle:
6 inches tall and burns at a rate of 1 divided by 5 inch per hour. This means that
. So

After how many hours will both candles be the same height ?
This is t when


![0.2t - 0.7t = 6 - 8[/yrc][tex]-0.5t = -2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.2t%20-%200.7t%20%3D%206%20-%208%5B%2Fyrc%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%5Btex%5D-0.5t%20%3D%20-2)
Multiplying by (-1)



Both candles will have the same height after 4 hours.
