Carpet is sold in square yards. how much carpet would a person need to buy for a rectangular room that has dimensions of 10 yards by 18 feet? 180 square yards 60 square yards 540 square yards 15 square yards

You have to keep in mind that there are two different units. 1 foot equals 3 yards so 18 feet equals 3 yards. Now that both parts of the equation are in the same unit, you can solve.

A = b x h

A = 6 x 10

A = 60 yards

Your answer would be B . 60 yards

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form

2x + 8
