Kate's model is correct because 10 times the value of 4 rods, 10(4(10)), is 400. Mel's model represents 4(1)=4, which is incorrect. Kate's model represents 4*100=400, which is correct.
Hope I answered your question!

- Coordinates (x, y)
- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = -2x + 4
2x + y = 4
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 2x + (-2x + 4) = 4
- Combine like terms: 4 = 4
Here we see that 4 does indeed equal 4.
∴ the systems of equations has an infinite amount of solutions.
