Question 1144750: A tent designer is working on a new tent. The tent will be made from black fabric, which costs $7 per yard, and green fabric, which costs $6 per yard. The designer will need at least 4 yards of black fabric, at least 6 yards of green fabric, and at least 12 yards of fabric overall. The total cost of the fabric used for the tent can be no more than $135. Use this information for Items 1-3.
1. Let x represent the number of yards of black fabric and y represent the number of yards of green fabric.
Write inequalities that model the four constraints in this situation.
2. Graph the constraints on graph paper using a straight edge to draw the axes and lines. Be sure to label each
axis, the units, and lines. You should have work shown to validate your shading.
3. Identify two ordered pairs that are solutions. Explain the meaning of each ordered pairs in a complete
sentence.
4. What is the greatest amount of green fabric the designer can use if all the constraints are met? Explain your
answer in a complete sentence.
5. What is the least amount of black fabric the designer can use if all the constraints are met. Explain your
answer in a complete sentence.

Question 1146586: Using the info given of m=9/2 and b=3, write an equation in standard form.
Since slope intercept formula is y=mx+b y=9/2x+3
& since b=3 we know that y intercept is (0,3)
therefore point slope form of y-y1=m(x-x1) is y-3=9/2(x-0)
so standard form would be Ax+By=C but how do I get there
