You are asked to do this problem by graphing, which would be hard to do over the Internet unless you can do your drawing on paper and share the resulting image by uploading it to Brainly.
If this were homework or a test, you'd get full credit only if you follow the directions given.
If <span>The points(0,2) and (4,-10) lie on the same line, their slope is m = (2+10)/(-4), or m =-3. Thus, the equation of this line is y-2 = -3x, or y = -3x + 2.
If </span><span>points (-5,-3) and (2,11) lie on another line, the slope of this line is:
m = 14/7 = 2. Thus, the equation of the line is y-11 = 2(x-2), or y = 11+2x -4, or y = 2x + 7.
Where do the 2 lines intersect? Set the 2 equations equal to one another and solve for x:
</span>y = -3x + 2 = y = 2x + 7. Then 5x = 5, and x=1.
Subst. 1 for x in y = 2x + 7, we get y = 2(1) + 7 = 9.
That results in the point of intersection (2,9).
Doing this problem by graphing, on a calculator, produces a different result: (-1,5), which matches D.
I'd suggest you find and graph both lines yourself to verify this. If you want, see whether you can find the mistake in my calculations.
Answer:
She can make 9 uniform tops from the material left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Yards of material left on the bolt = 
Material requirement for a uniform top for band members = 
To find the number of tops that can be made from the material left.
Solution:
In order to find the number of tops that can be made from yards of material, we need to divide 
by .
Number of uniform tops that can be made is given as:
⇒ 
We first convert mixed number to fractions.
⇒ 
To divide fractions the fractions are multiplied after flipping the divisor.
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 9
Thus, she can make 9 uniform tops from the material left.
