you for spending you time answering my question : )

You will need 220 feet of ribbon and 5 rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to multiply the amount of ribbon that each box needs (2 3/4) by the number of boxes (80).

Mathematically speaking:

2 3/4 x 8 = (2x4+3)/4 x 8 = 11/4 x 80 = 880/4 = 220 feet of ribbon

You will need 220 feet of ribbon.

Since each roll of ribbon has 50 feet, we have to divide the total amount of ribbon needed (220) by the amount of ribbon that each roll has (50), to calculate the number of rolls needed.

220/50 = 4.4 rolls =5 rolls (1 roll is not fully used)

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
