Answer:

Equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,7) and has a slope of zero is given as

$y=7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line is given as

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ -----------(1)

Here

$m=0 \ \ \ and \ \ \ (x_1, y_1) = (-2, 7)$

Substituting values in equation (1)

$y-7=0(x+2)\\y=7$

We have been given that Maria put trim around a banner that is the shape of a triangle. Each side is 21 inches long.

The amount of trim will be equal to perimeter of triangle. The perimeter of given triangle will be 3 times each side length that is $3\times 21=63$ inches.

Now we need to convert 63 inches into feet.

12 inches = 1 feet

63 inches = $\frac{63}{12}$ feet = 5.25 feet.

We are also told that Maria has $\frac{3}{4}$ foot of trim left, so total length of trim would be trim used plus trim left that is $5.25+\frac{3}{4}=5.25+0.75=6$ feet.
