Answer:
she bought 27 yards of ribbon
Step-by-step explanation:
20 - 14.06 = 5.94
5.94/0.22 = 27
739 rounded to nearest hundred is 700.
<h3>
Answer: -4</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
We can pick any two rows from the table to get the (x,y) points needed to find the slope.
Let's say we pick the second and third rows
Subtract the y values: 14-6 = 8
Subtract the x values in the same order: 1-3 = -2
Divide the differences: 8/(-2) = -4
The slope is -4
--------------------------------------------------
You can use the slope formula
Let's say the points are (x1,y1) = (1,14) and (3,6)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (6-14)/(3-1)
m = -8/2
m = -4
It's the same basic idea as the previous section. You subtract the y values together (y2-y1) and the x values together (x2-x1) and divide the differences to get m. The order of subtraction doesn't matter as long as you stay consistent. If you do something like y2-y1 and x1-x2, then you'll get the wrong slope value.
<h2><u>
Answer:</u></h2>
x = 3
y = -8
<h2><u>
Step-by-step explanation:</u></h2>
x + y = -5
x - y = 11
Since the y's will cancel out, we don't need to modify the two equations in any way.
Now, just add the two equations.
x + x = 2x
y + (-y) = 0
-5 + 11 = 6
2x = 6
Divide by 2.
x = 3
To find y, plug 3 in as "x" in one of the two equations.
3 + y = -5
y = -8
