Each strip is 29 cm

------------------------------------------------------
Change the m to cm
------------------------------------------------------
6 m = 600 cm

------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of strips for 1 6m-board
------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of strips that can be cut from the 6m board.

600 ÷ 29 = 20 pieces remainder 20cm

So we can only cut 20 pieces of 29 strips from one 6m board.

------------------------------------------------------
Find number of boards needed 
------------------------------------------------------
70 ÷ 20 = 3.5 

We need 3.5 of the 6m boards.

Since she can't have half a board, she has to buy 4 pieces of the board.

------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 4 pieces of the 6m board.
------------------------------------------------------

Hey!


Okay, to solve this problem, we'd first have to multiply both sides by two. The reason we do this is to get y on its own.

<em>Original Equation : </em>
\frac{y}{2} < -3

<em>New Equation {Changed by Multiplying 2 on Both Sides} :</em>
\frac{2y}{2} < 2 ( -3 )

And we simplify the equation to get our answer.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
\frac{2y}{2} < 2 ( -3 )

<em>New Equation {Changed by Simplification} :</em>
y < -6

<em>So, the equation \frac{y}{2} < -3 simplified is</em>  y < -6.

Hope this helps!

The slope of a line is undefined, and the x-intercept is -7. what is the equation of the line?​
Andreyy89

The equation of line with undefined slope and x - intercept -7 is x = -7

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that the slope of line is undefined and the x intercept is -7

To find: Equation of line

If a line has undefined slope, then it is a vertical line

A vertical line has undefined slope because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate

<em><u>The equation of a vertical line always takes the form:</u></em>

x = b

where, "b" is the x - intercept

Given x - intercept is -7

<em><u>Thus the equation of line is:</u></em>

x = -7

Therefore, the equation of line is found
