Jane needs 180 centimeters of green cloth and 240 centimeters of red cloth to make her holiday wreath. If she only had the money to buy 5/6 of each length that she needed, how many centimeters of cloth did she bring home in all?

She brought home 350 centimeters in total

Step-by-step explanation: The question specifies that Jane only had enough money to buy 5/6 of the materials she needed to make her wreath. For her wreath, she would need 180 centimeters of green cloth. However since she can only afford 5/6 of this, what she would end up with is

Green cloth = 180 x 5/6

Green cloth = (180 x5)/6

Green cloth = 900/6

Green cloth = 150 centimeters

Also she would need 240 centimeters of red cloth and since she can only afford 5/6 of the total, she would end up with

Red cloth = 240 x 5/6

Red cloth = (240 x5)/6

Red cloth = 1200/6

Red cloth = 200 centimeters

If she ended up with 150 centimeters of green cloth and 200 centimeters of red cloth, the total length of cloth she would bring home would be

Total = 150 + 200

Total = 350 centimeters

y=-2.5x+12.5

step-by-step explanation:

5y=2x+10

y=0.4x+2

slope=-2.5

5=-2.5*3+b

b=12.5
