Ared candle is 115 inches tall. the label claims that the candle will melt 1 1/8 inch every hour it burns. if the label is
correct, for how many hours will the candle burn?

(i asked this before but made a mistake on the number)

+25 = x

step-by-step explanation:

here x is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 7 and 24.   by the pythagorean theorem, 7² + 24² must equal x²:

x² = 49 + 576 = 625.   thus, x = +√625 = +25 = x

the height of the surface increases from the center out to the sides of the road

it is c!
