3 strips of 2.5 feet can be cut from the 7.5 feet long roll of ribbon.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>DATA:</u>
Length of strips Eli need is 2.5 feet long
Length of roll of ribbon is 7.5 feet long
Number of strips that can be cut from the 7.5 feet long roll is x
<u>SOLUTION:</u>
To determine how many strips can be cut, divide total length of roll of ribbon by the length of strips needed.
Number of strips that can be cut = 
x = 
(expression)
x = 3 strips
Therefore, 3 strips of 2.5 feet can be cut from the 7.5 feet long roll of ribbon.

Answer:4/125
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's start by guesstimating the slopes:
the green line has a slope close to -x, but more negative than that, possibly -2; the pink line has a slope close to +x, but higher towards +2.
Next let's look at the solution: the two lines intersect at the point (1, -1).
**you could just simple plug that x (1) into all the equations, but let's rule out answers anyway. ;)
A) is incorrect because the slopes of -1 and +1 are off from out predicted -2 and +2
B) is incorrect because of a similar reason, the slopes of +3 and +1 don't make any sense
C) Ooh, we do have a +2 and -2 for the slopes, and... violà! plug in 1 for the x's and we get -1 for the y in both equations
D) slopes are closer than in A and B, but plugging in 1 doesn't get us -1
So the correct answer is:
C) y = 2x - 3 and y = −2x + 1
