first transform feet into inches 4.5 feet = 48.5 inches; 5.5 feet = 60.5 inches;

then get the area in inches : 48.5 x 60.5 = 2934.25 inches; the area of one patch is 18 x 24 = 432 inches

so now divide the area of the desktop by the area of one patch

2934.25 / 432 = 6.7 so she needs 7 patches

What is a factor? _____________________________________________

Answer: What is a factor?

A factor is a  a divisor of an integer n, also called a factor of n, is an integer m that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n. In this case, one also says that n is a multiple of m. An integer n is divisible by another integer m if m is a divisor of n; this implies dividing n by m leaves no remainder.

Step-by-step explanation: Why can’t certain expressions be factored?

Because there are no common factors other than 1 the constants cannot be factored. And, because there is no x in the second term (10), we cannot factor an x out of the two terms.

Equation of a line that passses through (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)

perpendicular lines have slopes that mulitply to get -1
given
y-2=7/3(x+5)
slope is 7/3

perpendicular
7/3 times slope=-1
times 3/7 both sides
slope=-3/7

given point is (-5,2)

y-2=-3/7(x-(-5))
y-2=-3/7(x+5)
