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! :)

Choose the equation and the slope of the line that passes through (5,-3) and
madam [21]

Answer:

x = 5; the slope is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to the x-axis is a vertical line.

In a vertical line, every point has a different y-coordinate and the same x-coordinate. Since you want a line that is vertical and passes through the point (5, -3), then every point on the line must have x-coordinate 5 no matter what its y-coordinate is. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Answer: The equation is x = 5; the slope is undefined
