Answer: the length of Maria's piece of string is 45 inches.
the length of Katy's piece of string is 39 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of Maria's piece of string.
Let y represent the length of Katy's piece of string.
When they put the two pieces of string together end to end, the total length is 84inches. This means that
x + y = 84 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Maria's string is 6 inches longer than Katy's. This means that
x = y + 6
Substituting x = y + 6 into equation 1, it becomes
y + 6 + y = 84
2y + 6 = 84
2y = 84 - 6 = 78
y = 78/2 = 39
x = y + 6 = 39 + 6
x = 45
Answer:
Any equation with the slope -3 and a y intercept that does not equal 5
Step-by-step explanation:
a line is parallel if the line have the same slope, and different y intercepts
3x+y=5
in slope intercept form is
y=-3x+5
slope : -3
y intercept 5
Plot a graph of y-axis against x-axis.
The graph should be a straight line passing through:
(-2,0.8) , (-1,-0.4) , (0,0) , (1,0.4) and (2,0.8)
