Answer:

36.8 or 37 yards of fabric

Step-by-step explanation:

23 yards of fabric = five dresses

23 divided by five equals four point six

four point six multiplied by eight dress equals 36.8

23 yds of fabric = 5 dresses

23÷5=4.6

If you need to know how many yards of fabric, then you'd do:

4.6×8

4.6 is the amount of each yards 5 dresses are in and so if you times that by how many dresses you need now, you'll get:

36.8 yards of fabric

To round, it'd be 37 yards of fabric

Please help! what is y+7=-1/7(x+4) in slope intercept form?

Stells [14]

We know that
the equation of a line in <span>slope intercept form is--------------> y=mx+b
where
m-----------> is the slope
b-----------> is the y-intercept point when x=0

</span><span>y+7=-1/7(x+4)---------> y+7=(-1/7)x-4/7
</span>y+7=(-1/7)x-4/7------> y=(-1/7)x-4/7-7------> y=(-1/7)x-(53/7)

the answer is
y=(-1/7)x-(53/7)-------------> this is the equation of a line in slope intercept form
m=(-1/7)=-0.14
b=(-53/7)=-7.57
y=-0.14x-7.57
