Cara’s Candles O Cara likes candles. She also likes mathematics and was thinking about using algebra to answer a question that she had about two of her candles. O Her taller candle is 16 centimeters tall. Each hour it burns makes the candle lose 2.5 centimeters in height. Her short candle is 12 centimeters tall and loses 1.5 centimeters in height for each hour that it burns.

Cara’s Candles: The Data O Cara started filling out the following table to help determine whether these two candles would ever reach the same height at the same time if allowed to burn the same length of time. Finish the table for Cara. Use the data in the table to determine what time the two candles will be at the same height. Time (hours) 16 cm candle height (cm) 12 cm candle height (cm)

Some Things to Think About O Questions: 1. C ara wants to know what height the two candles would be at that time. If it is not possible, she wants to know why it could not happen and what would need to be true in order for them to be able to reach the same height. To help Cara understand what you are doing, justify your results. Explain your thinking using the table and create a graphical representation of the situation.

Cara’s Candles: The Graph

Questions, Continued 2. Using the table, write an equation for the height of each candle in terms of the number of hours it has burned. Be sure to include any constraints for the equation. 3. Cara has another candle that is 15 cm tall. How fast must it burn in order to also be 6 cm tall after 4 hours? Explain your thinking. 4. If Cara had a candle that burned 3 cm every hour, how tall would it need to be to also reach the same height as the other three candles after 4 hours? Explain your thinking.
