Ared candle is 11 2/5 inches tall. the label claims that the candle will melt 1 1/8 inch every hour it burns. if the label is correct, for how many hours will the candle burn?

Given situation: => There is a red candle that measures 11 2/5 inches tall. There is a label claiming that the candle will melt 1 1/8 inches every hour. Then, let’s say that the label is correct. Solve for how many hour will the red candle lasts. Solution: => 11 2/5 = 11.01 => 1 1/8 = 1.125 Let’s divide => 11.01 / 1.125 => 9.8 hours. Thus the red candle will last for approximately 9.8 hours or rounded off to 10 hours.

i = 2 / - 5

step-by-step explanation:

evaluation of ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q ) when p = 2 and q = 5 i, by putting values of p and q,                                                                    

0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q )0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( 2 + 5 i ),   by multiplying these0 = ( 4 + 10 i - 8 - 20 i )0 = 4 - 8 + 10 i - 20 i0 = - 4 -10 i   0 = 2 ( - 2 - 5 i )0 / 2 = - 2 - 5 i- 2 - 5 i = 0- 5 i = 2i = 2 / - 5
