For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

Where:
m: It is the slope of the line
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis.
According to the data of the statement we have the following points:

We found the slope:

Thus, the equation is of the form:

We substitute one of the points and find b:

Finally, the equation is:

Answer:

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.
Their selling price was 2.45 times the price they bought it. If they split the profit evenly and there was two of them, multiply their profit by two and divide that number by 800 to find how much more they sold it for, so they sold it for 245% more than they bought it
