I'm not sure, but what I got was -8.5, since it is only stating that it is -17 and 5, and you need to figure out Point B, when it is between A and 0. So, you don't pay attention to 1-5. You only want -17 through 0. -17 divided by two would be -8.5

Answer:
x = 9.818
x≈10
The number of banners that can be made are 10
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the knowledge of proportion to solve this.
First we need to convert yard to feet.
1 yard = 3 foot
4 1/2 yard = y
cross-multiply
y = 4 1/2 × 3
=9/2 × 3
y = 
feet
This implies 4 1/2 yards = feet
Let x be the numbers of banners needed to make from 4 1/2 yards of fabric.
1 3/8 feet = 1 banner
feets = x
cross multiply
1 3/8 × x =
=
cross-multiply
22x = 216
Divide both-side of the equation by 22
22x/22 = 216/22
x = 9.818
x≈10
The number of banners that can be made are 10
Answer: the bill for a hamburger is $0.7
the bill for a salad is $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the bill for a hamburger.
Let y represent the bill for a salad.
The bill for five hamburgers and four salads is $9.50. This means that
5x + 4y = 9.5- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The bill for four hamburgers and five salads is $10.30. This means that
4x + 5y = 10.3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes
20x + 16y = 38
20x + 25y = 51.5
Subtracting, it becomes
- 9y = - 13.5
y = - 13.5/ - 9
y = 1.5
Substituting y = 1.5 into equation 1, it becomes
5x + 4(1.5) = 9.5
5x + 6 = 9.5
5x = 9.5 - 6 = 3.5
x = 3.5/5 = 0.7
