Answer:

Solution : Third Option

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step here is to make all the signs uniform. As you can see the third inequality has a less than sign, which we can change to a greater than sign by dividing negative one on either side, making the inequality y > - 7.

\begin{bmatrix}y>-3x+4\\ y>2x\\ y>-7\end{bmatrix}

Now take a look at the third option. Of course the y - coordinate, 3, is greater than - 7, so it meets the third requirement ( y > - 7 ). At the same time 3 > 1( 2 ) > 2, and hence it meets the second requirement as well. 3 > - 3( 1 ) + 4 > - 3 + 4 > 1, meeting the first requirement.

Therefore, the third option is a solution to the system.

Emma uses a 250 meters roll of crepe paper to make steamers how many dekameters of crepe paper does Emma use
Ksivusya [100]
The  dekameter (or decameter) first needs to be a translated into how many the meters. deka means 10, so a dekameter it must be 10 meters. So we have to divide 250 by 10, and then we will come up with 25 dekameters.
hope that helps!!
