A candle burns down at the rate of 0.75 inches per hour. The original height of the candle was 9 inches. Part A: Write a list of 6 ordered pairs to show the height of the candle in inches (y) as a function of time in hours (x) from the first hour after it started burning. For example, the point (0, 9) would represent a height of 9 inches after 0 hours. Explain how you obtained the ordered pairs. (5 points) Part B: Is this relation a function? Justify your answer using the list of ordered pairs you created in Part A. (2 points) Part C: If the rate at which the candle burned was 0.5 inches per hour instead of 0.75 inches per hour, would the relation be a function? Explain your answer using input and output values. (3 points)

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

the fist one is not equalvalent but i think th second one isand the third isnt definetly or the last one is i think. hope this !
