Please Help!! Thomas is cutting a board into 1/4 yard pieces if the board is 3 yards long, how many pieces can Thomas cut? Use the number line. Choose the equation that represents the problem:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 4 pieces, 3 yards = 12 pieces

Given:

The points are A(3, -3), B(-3, -2), C(-5, 1), D(-5, 4), E(-4 ,6), F(-2, 6), G(3, 2).

To find:

The length of EF and plot each point on a coordinate plane and connect them.

Solution:

Plot the given point A(3, -3), B(-3, -2), C(-5, 1), D(-5, 4), E(-4 ,6), F(-2, 6), G(3, 2) on coordinate plane and connect them as shown in the below figure.

From the below graph it is clear that the length of EF is 2 units. We can verify this solution by using the distance formula.

Distance formula:

Using the distance formula, the distance between E(-4 ,6) and F(-2, 6) is

Therefore, the length of EF is 2 units.
