Country Carpets charges $22 per square yard for carpeting, and an additional installation fee of $100. City carpets charges $25 per square yard for the same carpeting and an additional installation fee of $70. Write and solve an equation to find the number of square yards of carpeting for which the total cost charged by the two companies will be the same.

10

Step-by-step explanation:

country carpets: y = 22x + 100

City carpets: y = 25x + 70

22x + 100 = 25x + 70

I could be wrong but I hope this helps!

a) justify

step-by-step explanation:

justifying is just part of everyday life. justify kind of means proof so i think the answer is a) justify.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
