To make sure we don't have negatives under the square root, we specify that

(x is greater than or equal to 0). We'll use this fact later on
--------------------------------------------
Start with the given inequality

and square both sides to get

. Couple this with the fact that

means we have this compound inequality

What does this mean? It means that we can pick any value from 0 to 49 (including both endpoints) and it will be a solution to the inequality. This applies to the values
49, 48 and 44Answers: Choice C, Choice D, Choice E
(6/5) x - 4 = 46
Add 4 to both sides
(6/5)x = 50
To get rid of (6/5) multiply the inverse number by both sides. Inverse number is (5/6)
x = 50 * 5/6
x = (125/3)
Number 1 wants you to set up proportions so four numbers equal to 2/1 would be: 6/3 8/4 10/5 12/6, and so on. I'm not sure what they're asking when they say the sum of the first two numbers is equal to 4.8
Using a linear function, it is found that it will take 13 hours for the candle to burn down to a height of .25 inches.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
Considering the situation described, the y-intercept is of 10 while the slope is of -0.75, hence the height of the candle after t hours is given by:
h(t) = 10 - 0.75t
The height will be of 0.25 inches when h(t) = 0.25, hence:
0.25 = 10 - 0.75t
0.75t = 9.75
t = 9.75/0.75
t = 13 hours.
