Answer:
y=-1/100x+6 or y=-1x+600
Step-by-step explanation:
6 inches is the Y intercept (600,0) if measuring by 1/100 or (6,0)
Since the wax is melting, the slope is going to be negative
y=mx+6 or y=mx+600 either is fine and would yield the same results
y=-.01x+6, y=1/100x+6 or y=-1x+600
To explainn why 6 and 600 are both fine, 6 is measuring with full inches while the 600 is measuring with .01 inches. One graph will be full numbers while the other will be decimals.
