A16 inch candle is lit and burns at a constant rate of 1.1 inches per hour. let t represent the never of hours that have elapsed since the candle was lit.

a) write an expression in terms of t that represents the number of incrhs that have burned from the candle since it was lit.
b) write an expression in terms of t that represents the remaining length of the candle (in inches).

(a) Number of inches that have burned from the candle since it was lit is (1.1t) inches

(b) The remaining length of the candle is (16 - 1.1t) inches

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). Length of candle before it was lit = 16 inches

Constant rate at which at which candle burns = 1.1 inches per hour

Let t represent the number of hours that have elapsed since the candle was lit

In 1 hour, 1.1 inches of the candle burned

Therefore, in t hours, (1.1t) inches of the candle would have burned since the candle was lit

(b) Remaining length of candle = length of candle before it was lit - length of candle that have burned = 16 inches - 1.1t inches = (16 - 1.1t) inches

step-by-step explanation:   divide the numerator by the denominator to get the decimal

it would still be 193

if divide by 100 then 1.93
