Answer:
x=5 , x=4, x=2
i got this answer by setting the x-5=0 then solve for x. same for each x-5, x-4, x-2.
Complete question :
Chris has 7/8 yards of purple ribbon and 1 1/6 yards of green ribbon. Chris has a total of 3 2/3 yards of ribbon. How many yards of Chris's ribbon are neither purple nor green.
Answer:
1.625 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Purple ribbon = 7/8 yards
Green ribbon = 1 1/6 yards = 7/6 yards
Total ribbon = 3 2/3 yards = 11/3 yards
Ribbon that is neither purple nor green :
Total ribbon - (green + purple ribbon)
7/8 - (7/6 + 7/8)
11/3 - (28 + 21) / 24
11/3 - 49/24
= 1.625 yards
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
so you want to start by using y=mx+b
step one: find the slope (remember m is the slope in this)
m= 
m= 
m= 
m= - 
step two: insert the value we found for m into the equation and take one of the given points and insert the x and y into the equation (im using (0,5)) and solve for b.
y=mx+b
5= -4/3(0)+b
5=b
step three: rewrite y=mx+b with the values we found for m and for b
