If "n" is a positive integer divisible by 3 and n is less than or equal to 44, then what is the highest possible value of n?

The highest possible value of n is

Step-by-step explanation:

We know by reading the exercise that ''n'' is a positive integer ⇒

n ∈ IN and n > 0

And that ''n'' is less than or equal to 44 ⇒ n ≤ 44

Finally, ''n'' is divisible by 3.

A possible way to solve this exercise is to list all the integers numbers between 0 and 44 that are divisible by 3 and select the highest one.

The integers numbers in this interval are :

3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42

All this numbers are positive integers lowest or equal to 44 and divisible by 3.

Therefore, the highest ''n'' value is 42.

for every hour i deducted .5 inches from the length of the candle

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value
