Answer: 38 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The beds have the same dimensions.

Then, to find the number of feet of fabric that Carrie will need to make skirts for both beds, you need to calculate the perimeter of one of them and multiply it by 2. After this, you can make the conversion from inches to feet.

The perimeter of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

P=2l+2w

Where "l" is the length and "w" is the width.

You know that the dimensions of each bed are:

l=75in\\w=39in

Then you can substitute these values into the formula:

P=2(75in)+2(39in)\\P=228in

Therefore,  the number of inches of fabric that Carrie will need to make skirts for both beds is:

P_{total}=2*228in=456in

Make the conversion from inches to feet.  Then, 456 inches to feet is:

(456in)(\frac{1ft}{12in})=38ft

Instructions: Rewrite the equation in Slope-Intercept Form. y−2=−2/5(x−5)
Leno4ka [110]

The equation in Slope-Intercept Form is y = -2/5 x + 4.

We have given that,

y−2=−2/5(x−5)

We have to rewrite the equation in Slope-Intercept Form.

<h3>What is the slope-intercept form of the line?</h3>

slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

for equation y - 2 = -2/5 (x - 5) we need to simplify/rearrange

so y - 2 = -2/5 x + -2/5 (-5)

= -2/5 x + 2

=> y = -2/5 x + 4

This line has a gradient of -2/5 (goes down 2 units and across 5 units) and a y-intercept of 4 so passes through the point (0,4).
