Answer: the length of Maria's piece of string is 45 inches.
the length of Katy's piece of string is 39 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of Maria's piece of string.
Let y represent the length of Katy's piece of string.
When they put the two pieces of string together end to end, the total length is 84inches. This means that
x + y = 84 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Maria's string is 6 inches longer than Katy's. This means that
x = y + 6
Substituting x = y + 6 into equation 1, it becomes
y + 6 + y = 84
2y + 6 = 84
2y = 84 - 6 = 78
y = 78/2 = 39
x = y + 6 = 39 + 6
x = 45
Answer:oof
Step-by-step explanation:
This one is best done by elimination:
We need to start 4 meters away, so B is clearly wrong.
We first move towards Mr. Wilson (i.e. distance is decreasing) so A is wrong.
Our speed is faster on the way back, so the two sloped section must have differing slopes, so D is wrong.
(D also doesn't start at 4, it's wrong for two reasons.)
Only C is left.
We can check each part to make sure. First we start at 4m, then move away, then stay still (zero slope) for three seconds, then move back faster (higher slope). All parts check out ok.

Answer:
1st option is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
blue line: slope is 1 and y-intercept is 1; therefore equation is y= x + 1
red line: slope is -1 and y-intercept is -3; therefore equation is y= -x - 3
