Problem 220. A square yard is a unit of measurement for area. A square
yard is an amount of area equivalent to a 1-yard by 1-yard square. Jane buys 1/2 a square yard of cloth with a striped pattern, and 1/3 of a square yard of cloth with a floral pattern. How much total cloth did Jane purchase?
Use a diagram to model how to solve this problem

 She  bought  5/6 square yard

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the fractions to Least Common Multiple equivalents then add

1/2 = 3/6

1/3 = 2/6

3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is

all it means is function 3
