The total distance she will need to cut is 62 centimeters. Work shown: 1) simplify original equation- 10x-4+6x+2( 40-4+24+2) 2) solve equation: 36+24+2 3) continue to solve: 38+24= 62. Now you have your answer!!
Presume y=kx +b,then substitute (3,0)&(5,4),
When x=3,y=0,so 3k+b=0;
When x=5,y=4,so 5k+b=4;
Now u can know that k=2,b=-6.
The answer is:y=2x-6.
3) 3(8b + 3)
4) 57
I’m pretty sure that this is the answer
As x decreases y also decreased
