The height of a candle depends on the amount of time the candle has been burning

the dependent component will be the height.

you grab a candle, and it has a height of hmmm 7 inches say, and then you light it up, as the independent component of time goes by, the height is shortening, so the height is dependent on the time in order to be either taller or shorter.

so height of the candle being dependent on such, is the range of such function.

the answer is d

the answer is in the first quadrant, which make the y-int positive.

since the dots are going down, therefore the correlation is negative

i hope it is right.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get
