Carson just lit a new candle and then let it burn all the way down to nothing. The candle burned at a rate of 1.25 inches per hour and its initial length was 10 inches.
Make a table of values and then 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.

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 10 - 1.25t

t = 1 ⇒ L = 10 - 1.25 = 8.75 inches

t = 2 ⇒ L = 10 - 1.25(2) = 7.5 inches

t = 3 ⇒ L = 10 - 1.25(3) = 6.25 inches

54 km / hours

step-by-step explanation:

we need to convert seconds to hours

60 seconds = 1 minutes

60 minutes = 1hour

15 m         60 second   60 minutes

  * *         = 54000 meters/ hour

second     1 minute             1 hour

now we need to convert meters to km

1000 m = 1 km

54000 m       1 km

*   = 54 km / hours

hour               1000m
