Application problem with a linear function: Finding a coordinate... Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time in hours) it has been burning. After 10 hours of burning, a candle
has a height of 24 centimeters. After 21 hours of burning, its height is 18.5 centimeters. What is the height of the candle after 17 hours?

The figure above shows the lengths of thesides of a rectangle in cm. find the valuesof x and y and then the area of the rectangle.sides: top= 3x - yleft= 3y + 4bottom= 2x + yright= 2x - 3 use both methods, elimination and substitution, if possible.

The position of a moving particle is given by the position function: f(t)=-9t-t^2-0.2t^3+0.1t^4 0 a. at what time does the particle reverse direction? b. when is the displacement positive? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) c. when is the displacement negative? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) d. when is the particle’s acceleration positive? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) e. when is the particle’s acceleration negative? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation)

15 and 14.7 are 1 apart, so 15 – 14.7 must be 1.
