Let t = number of hours
The first candle starts at 8 inches.
It burns at 7/10 inch per hour, so in t hours it burns (7/10)t inches.
After t hours, its length is 8 - (7/10)t
The second candle starts at 6 inches.
It burns at 1/5 inch per hour, so in t hours it burns (1/5)t inches.
After t hours, its length is 6 - (1/5)t
You want the lengths to be equal, so the equation is
8 - (7/10)t = 6 - (1/5)t
Answer:
w = 6.7451
x = 8.0805
Step-by-step explanation:
Find W
Tan(56) = opposite / adjacent
opposite = 10
Adjacent = w
Tan (56) = 10/w
w*Tan(56) = 10
w = 10 / tan(56)
w = 10/ 1.4826
w = 6.7451
Find x
Tan (34) = 10 / (w + x)
Tan (34) = 0.6745
(w + x) * Tan(34) = 10
w + x = 10 / tan(34)
w+ x = 10 / 0.6745
w + x = 14.826
But we found w = 6.7451
6.7451 + x = 14.826
x = 14l826 - 6.7451
x = 8.0805
A=equilateral hope that helped
B is the correct answer I think
Answer:
A quadratic equation is an equation of the second degree, meaning it contains at least one term that is squared. The standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0 with a, b, and c being constants, or numerical coefficients, and x is an unknown variable. One absolute rule is that the first constant "a" cannot be a zero.
