Answer:
1 inch per hour
Explanation:
Let x represent inches burned per hour
The equation to finding the rate of the candle burning:
3x=3
For those who dont know, whenever you have a variable with a term, its basically multiplying, and we want to do the opposite to get x by itself, so we divide
x=3/3
Which can be simplified as:
x=1
Where x is the inches burned per hour, which equal 1
