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 : x = 20
Explanation :
3x + 2x +20 + 4x - 20 = 180
(3+2+4=9)
9x + 20 - 20
The 20s cancel each other out because one is positive and the other is negative
9x = 180
9x/9 = 180/9
X = 180 divided by 9
X = 20
Answer:
(2,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to substitute y in the first equation with the right side of the second equation because they both equal to y.
-3x+4 = 4x-10
-3x-4x+4-4 = 4x-4x-10-4
-7x = -14
-7x/-7 = -14/-7
x = 2
Plugin 2 for x for either equation to solve for y, I'll be using the second equation, but either one is fine.
y = 4(2)-10
y = 8-10
y = -2
Plugin x = 2 and y = -2 into (x,y), and you get (2,-2)
