Answer:
7 strips
Step-by-step explanation:
One way we can solve this is through guess and check. Let's start with 4 strips. If Joe's grandma makes 4 strips, she will have 0.75*4 = 3.00 yards of fabric. That's a really low amount of fabric. Let's double that to 8, where Joe's grandma would need 0.75*8 = 6.00 yards of fabric. That's really close! Let's remove one strip. 0.75*7 = 5.25 yards of fabric. Perfect! Joe's grandma can cut exactly 7 strips
You would need to see the rest of the equation to plug in 7 for x. Treat it as y=equation and replace any x with 7.

6y = -7x + 30
y = -7/6x + 5
answer:
slope = -7/6</span>
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Fiona (F) = Sushi (S)
Malachy (M) = 7 Fiona (F)
M = F + 90
F + 90 = 7F
6F = 90
F (Fiona) = 15
S (Sushi) = 15
check: Malachy (M) = 15 * 7 = 105
M-F = 105 - 15 = 90
No the product will be less than 9/10.
This can be easily seen if the fractions are converted into decimals.
The decimal form of the product of 7/8 and 9/10 is 0.867 while the decimal form of 9/10 is 0.9. Therefore, the product of 7/8 and 9/10 is not greater than 9/10
