Brayden just lit a new candle and then let it burn all the way down to nothing. The
candle burned at a rate of 0.75 inches per hour and its initial length was 6 inches.
Write an equation for L, in terms of t, representing the length of the candle
remaining unburned, in inches, t hours after the candle was lit.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

L = -0.75t + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

L = length (this is what equation you are looking to solve for

-0.75t because the candle burns at 0.75 in per hour so the value decreases, hence the (-)

+6 because the candle has a positive value of 6 inches to begin with

The standard form of what you are writing is called slope intercept form y = mx + b, learn it because it is very important for future math.

Answer 2

The equation of the candle remaining unburned at any given time is       L(t) = 6 - 0.75t.

What is a function ?

A function is a set of values of the dependent variable for specified independent variable.

According to the given question Brayden just lit a new candle and then let it burn all the way down to nothing.

The candle burned at a rate of 0.75 inches per hour and its initial length was 6 inches we have to write an equation for L in terms of t where t represents time in hours and L(t) represents length of the candle remain unburned.

∴ L(t) = 6 - 0.75t.

At t = 0 the length of the unburned candle L(t) will be 6 inches and at t = 8 L(t) will be 0,So the candle can burn for 8 hours.

THINK SMARTER Margot wants to use partial products to find 22 X 17.
Write the numbers in the boxes to show 22 X 17-

Answers

Answer:

( 20 × 10 ) + ( 20 × 7 ) + ( 2 × 10 ) + ( 2 × 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

To create partial products when multiplying two numbers, first break the numbers up into a sum of two numbers. The order that these numbers are multiplied does not necessarily matter as long as they are multiplied with the correct numbers.

22 × 17 = (20 + 2)(10 + 7) = 20 (10 + 7) + 2 (10 + 7) =

( 20 × 10 ) + ( 20 × 7 ) + ( 2 × 10 ) + ( 2 × 7 )

= 374

You can check this method works by using your calculator, and multiplying 22 by 17 to get 374 again!

Tickets to an amusement park cost $35 for adults and $20 for children. The equation 35x+20y=140 shows how many adults x and children y can visit the amusement park with $140. If no children go, how many adults can go to the amusement park with $140?
A)7
B)5
C)4
D)2

Answers

Answer: Four adults

Step-by-step explanation: 4 x 35 = 140. There are no children, so you can just ignore 20y (I hope this helps!)

If no children will go to the amusement park then a total of 4 adults can go to the amusement park for $140. Hence, option C is correct.

What is an equation?

Equations are logical assertions in mathematics that have two algebraic expressions on either side of an equals (=) sign. The expression on the left and the expression on the right is shown to be equal in reference to one another. LHS = RHS (left hand side = right hand side) appears in all mathematical equations.

You can solve equations to determine an unknown variable's value, which corresponds to an unknown quantity. It is not an equation if there is no "equal to" sign in the statement.

The given equation is :

35x + 20y = 140

Cost of adults to go to the amusement park, (x) = $35 and,

Cost of children going to the amusement park, (y) = $20.

If no children are going to the amusement park, then the number of adults who can go to the park is :

35x + 20(0) = 140

35x = 140

x = 140/35

x = 4.

Hence, this concludes that option C is correct.

Answer:

These are the answers in order

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Definition of bisector

2. Definition of perpendicular

3. ∠AXP ≅ ∠AXQ

4. SAS Congruence Postulate

5. Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent

The missing parts that complete the proof are;

2) Definition of a bisector.

3) Perpendicular Definition.

4) ∠AXP ≅ ∠AXQ

6) SAS Congruence Theorem.

7) Corresponding sides of 2 congruent triangles are congruent.

We are given that;

Point A is the perpendicular bisector of PQ

Point A is equidistant from the endpoints of PQ.

2) We are told that PX = QX; Since A bisects PQ at X, it means it divides it into 2 equal parts. Thus, this id true because it corresponds with the definition of a bisector.

3.  ∠AXP and ∠AXQ are right angles; Since perpendicular means right angle or 90°, we can say that this statement is true because it corresponds with the definition of perpendicular.

4. All right angles are congruent; This simply means they are equal. Thus, the two right angles here ∠AXP and ∠AXQ are congruent. We can write this with congruency symbol as; ∠AXP ≅ ∠AXQ

6. △AXP≅△AXQ; This means that △AXP is congruent to △AXQ. From the diagram, we can see that AP = AQ and that QX = PX and that ∠AXP = ∠AXQ. This means 2 corresponding sides and one corresponding angle are equal and the congruence theorem this depicts is SAS Congruence Theorem.

7. AP = AQ; This is true because we are told A is equidistant from both P and Q. Also, from the SAS congruency theorem, we can say that the corresponding sides AP and AQ are congruent.
