1a) Which group of candles could be represented by the graph? Which candle goes with which line? Why? 1b) Write an equation to represent each candle's burning. What does the slope tell you about the candle? What does the y-intercept (starting point) tell you about the candle? 1c) Write an equation for a fourth candle, candle N, whose graph is parallel to the graphs of candles X, Y, and Z. Sketch the graph of your equation on the same grid with the graphs for candles X, Y, and Z. Explain how you know this equation will produce a graph that is parallel to the graphs for candles X, Y, and Z.
