Question

help

Answer 1

here, the requested function h, is given by the subsequent formula:
\[\Large \frac{{t - 3}}{{5 - 3}} = \frac{{h - 17}}{{15 - 17}}\]
please solve for h

Answer 2

more explanation:
the equation above is the equation of a line which passes at points (3,17) and (5,15)

Answer 3

what is h?

Answer 4

1? so in 8 hours it will be 12 inches
3-17
5-15
7-13
8-12 every two hours the candle reduces two inches so in one hour it reduces 1 inch?

Answer 5

after a simplification, we get:
\[h = - t + 20\]
please check that formula.
So, if I replace t with 8, I can write:
\[h = - t + 20 = - 8 + 20 = 12\]
