Answer:
1 and 2/5 yards wastes only 1/15 a yard
Step-by-step explanation:
1 and 1/6 yards would make a waste of 1 and 1/6 yards since you can't make a ribbon out of it. (incorrect)
1 and 2/10 yards would make a waste of 1 and 1/5 yards since you can't make a ribbon out of it. (incorrect)
1 and 2/5 yards

Wastes 1/15 a yard.
1 and 1/2 yards

It wastes 1/6 a yard.
2 yards

It wastes 4/6 a yard.
Answer:
52 people
Step-by-step explanation:
add 5 9 12 17 4 5 and youlk get 52 people.
So now its

but you want it in y=mx+b so
add x to both sides so that you have y on its own
so now it's
I assume you mean x squared in the first equation
Because both are equal to y, they are equal to each other so x + 5 = x^2 +3
If we then move everything over to one side, we get x^2 - x - 2 = 0
Then factorise it to (x-2)(x+1) = 0
And solve both parts separately
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
x-2 = 0
x = 2
Sub both values into the simplest equation in this case y=x+5
to get y = 4 and y = 7
