part a

x     y

0     8

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

3       6.8

6mm^3 or .6cm^3

      216

  36     6

  /   \     /

6     6   6

factor trees are nice.

i think the amount would be $140.62
