Answer:

1,728

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 3 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

So,

1 yard = 3×12 = 36 inches

48 yards = 48×36 = 1,728 inches

Answer:

1728 inches

Explanation:

There are 3 feet in 1 yard and 12 inches in 1 foot, so we have:

48 yards * 3 = 144 feet

144 ft * 12 = 1728 inches

Emily bought 1728 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - given point

$\bullet\ (2,\ 7),\ m=-4\\\\y-7=-4(x-2)\\\\\bullet(-6,\ -2),\ m=3\\\\y-(-2)=3(x-(-6))\to y+2=3(x+6)\\\\\bullet(12,\ 5),\ m=-3\\\\y-5=-3(x-12)\\\\\bullet(7,\ -6),\ m=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\y-(-6)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-7)\to y+6=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-7)\\\\\bullet(4,\ -5),\ m=6\\\\y-(-5)=6(x-4)\to y=y+5=6(x-4)\\\\\bullet(-8,\ 2),\ m=-\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\y-2=-\dfrac{3}{4}(x-(-8))\to y-2=-\dfrac{3}{4}(x+8)$
