Acertain number was increased by 5 then decreased by 3 than halved the result was 0.3 less than the original number

X=0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.    

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.        

Step 3: Add 3/2 to both sides.            

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 2/3.  )

hello :

70y^8 + 30y^6 = 2 ( 35 y^8 + 15y^6)

the lenght is : 35 y^8

the width is : 15y^6

part a

x     y

0     8

1     7.5

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
