20.4 miles
48 miles
50 miles
70 miles

50 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

This represents a 3-4-5 right triangle, where 3-4-5 is the ratio. Multiply those numbers by 10 to get 30-40-50. 30 and 40 are already in the problem, so 50 is the answer.

part a

x     y

0     8

1     7.5

2     7

3     6.5

4     6

5     5.5  

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

x       y

0       8

1       7.6

2       7.2
