Answer:
50 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the each ribbon was x.
Now, she cuts 9 pieces of same length L which means total length is 9L.
Now, doing the same she was left with 5 inches of ribbon. Hence, we have
[tex[9L+5=x.....(1)[/tex]
Similarly, we can write a equation for the second situation.

From equation 1 and 2,

Plugging this value in equation 1,

Therefore, the length of each ribbon when she bought them was 50 inches.
Answer:
x=2/5 y−2
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one the answer is y=-1x+6 which means x=-1 and y=6
Hello LovingAngel!
To find the slope, you can use the formulas

as well as

. I am using the latter to calculate and ensuring my answer with the former.
[Note: (x,y) is the format for ordered pairs]
First pair: value 1:(1,5) and value 2:(2,8)

->

->

or 3.
The slope for (1,5) and (2,8) is 3(/1). Second pair: value 1: (3,1) value 2 (3,-1)

->

->
Slope for the second pair is -2/0Checking work with

1. Slope: 3/1, meaning rise (y) +3 and run (x) +1. (1,5) -> (1+1,5 + 3) -> (2,8) ✔
2. Slope: -2/0, meaning rise (y) -2/drop (y) 2 and run 0. (3,1) -> (3 + 0, 1 + -2) -> (3,-1) <span>✔</span>
