There is no table to look at.

Anyways, to solve for the amount they will spend you will have to do some conversions to switch yards and feet to inches. Additonally, there is also a rate missing which is the cost per inch.

So here is what you’ll have to do…

1. Solve for the slope of the equation

2. See if this linear equation has a y-intercept. It can be done by looking at the table to see where x=0 or by solving using y=mx+b where you substitite the slope for “m” and any coordinate that lies on the graph for “y” and “x” to then solve for “b” which is the y-int.

3. Then write out your equation.

4. Make the conversions

5. Solve for the cost by subtituting the units of measurement into the “x”.

What is the length of the missing leg in the triangle below?<br> 15yards<br> 12yards
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is the Pythagorean theorem the formula is a²+ b² = c² so we arent given a but we are given c so we have to work backwards c = 15 and 15 × 15 = 225 12 × 12 = 144 225 - 144 = 81 so Now we just have to figure out what multiplied by itself equals 81 therefore 9 is our answer because 9 × 9 = 81 Hope that helps!
