Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = small barrettes
y = large barrettes
13x + 11y = 142.......multiply by -1
13x + 12y = 149
-----------------------
-13x - 11y = -142 (result of multiplying by -1)
13x + 12y = 149
------------------------add
y = 7..........large barrettes used 7 yards
13x + 11y = 142
13x + 11(7) = 142
13x + 77 = 142
13x = 142 - 77
13x = 65
x = 65/13
x = 5........small barrettes used 5 yards
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you need to do is develop the equation. Less in this case means subtract.
On the left side you have
9 times a number which is 9*x
5 less than 9 times a number means 9x - 5
Now you shift to the right
x = 3
x + 19 What you get is
9x - 5 = x + 19 Subtract x from both sides of the equation
9x - x - 5 = 19 Combine both x terms on the left
8x - 5 = 19 Add 5 to both sides.
8x - 5 + 5 = 19 + 5 Combine terms
8x = 24 Divide by 8
x = 24/8
x = 3

The four answer choices are equal and pass through the point (-3,1), which you verify replacing the variables:
y - 1 = (x + 3)
1 - 1 = -3 + 3
0 = 0.
The other factor that you have to considerate is the slope.
The slope of the equation y - 1 = x + 3 is 1 (the coefficient of the x).
Given that the slopes of two parallel line are the same (equal), you need to determine the slope of the parallel line.
Once you know the slope of the parallel line, you can choose the right option.
The equation shown, y - 1 = x + 3 is the right fit if and only if the parallel line has slope 1.
