STEP 1:
Divide the length of the ribbon by the size of the pieces.

12 inches= 1 foot

= 9 ft ÷ 15 inch pieces
convert ft to inches
= (12)(9) ÷ 15
= 108 ÷ 15
= 7.2 pieces from one roll

STEP 2:
multiply the number of pieces that can be cut from one roll by the number of rolls

= 7.2 pieces * 5 rolls
= 36 pieces total from 5 rolls

ANSWER: The greatest number of 15-inch pieces that can be cut from five 9-foot rolls is 36.

Hope this helps! :)

Given that the coordinates of the point A is (2,7) and the coordinates of the point B is (6,3)
We need to determine the midpoint of A and B
Midpoint of A and B:
The midpoint of A and B can be determined using the formula,

Substituting the points (2,7) and (6,3) in the above formula, we get;

Adding the numerator, we have;

Dividing the terms, we get;

Thus, the midpoint of the points A and B is (4,5)

Write a linear equation that passes through the points(2,-2) and (0,1)
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Slope intercept: y = -3/2x + 1

Point slope: y + 2 = -3/2 * (x - 2) [Forgot to add the work for this, I will add it if you need it, feel free to ask.]

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (change in y)/change in x)

But also

m = y_2 - y_1/x_2 - x_1


So lets substitute

m = 1 - (-2)/0 - (2)

Lets find the slope

m = 3/0 - (2)

m = 3/-2

m = -3/2 (Moved the negative)

Now we find the value of b using the equation of a line.

y = mx + b

y = (-3/2) * x + b

y = (-3/2) * (2) + b

-2 = (-3/2) * (2) + b

Now we find the value of b

Lets rewrite

-3/2 * 2 + b = -2

Cancel the CF of 2

-3 + b = -2

Move the terms without b to the right

b = -2 + 3

b = 1

Now we substitute our values of the slope and y-int into y = mx + b to find the equation.

y = -3/2x + 1
