Sami cut 6 and three-fourths inches off a long roll of paper. If the roll is now 36 and one-third inches long, how long was the original roll of paper? Write an equation and solve it to find the answer. 29 and StartFraction 7 Over 12 EndFraction inches
30 and StartFraction 7 Over 12 EndFraction inches
42 and StartFraction 1 Over 12 EndFraction inches
43 and StartFraction 1 Over 12 EndFraction inches

d: (13,-1)

step-by-step explanation:

we know the starting point is (1,5)

the ending point is (x,y)   (cristians house)

the total distance is 6 units (5: 1)  

the fast food restaurant is at (11,0) and is 5/6ths of the way from the starting point to the ending point

ending minus starting point * 5/6   is how far they went

(x-1) *5/6, (y-5) * 5/6

we then need to add the starting point to determine the location

5/6(x-1) + 1, (y-5) * 5/6 + 5

this equals the fast food location of 11,0

setting the x locations equal

5/6 (x-1) +1 =11

subtracting 1 from each side

5/6 (x-1) +1-1 =11-1

5/6(x-1) =10

multiplying by 6/5 on each side

6/5*5/6(x-1) = 10*6/5

x-1 =12

add 1 to each side

x-1+1 =12+1

x=13

do the same for the y coordinate

(y-5) * 5/6 + 5 =0

subtract 5 from each side

(y-5) * 5/6 + 5-5 =0-5

5/6 (y-5) = -5

multiplying by 6/5 on each side

6/5*5/6 (y-5) = -5 *6/5

y-5 = -6

add 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -6+5

y=-1

the ending point , or the coordinates of cristians house is

(13,-1)

question says to graph a triangle (xyz) and reflect it over the line y=x to create triangle x'y'z'.

we know that line y=x has both coordinates equal like (1,1), (5,5) etc so we can easily graph that reflecting line.

description of transformation:

we can see that x and y coordinate gets switched after transformation like (2,8) changed to (8,2)

what do you notice about the two line segments you drew:

we see that line segments xp and x'p are of same length and perpendicular to the reflecting line y=x.

do you think you would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line? :

yes, i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line.

how do you know? :

by measuring the length of yk and y'k.
