Question

nuka is weaving beaded strips. the double number line shows that they can weave 7 cm of the strip in 4 minutes.

time
(minutes)
length
(cm)

based on the ratio shown in the double number line, what length can nuka weave in 5 minutes?

cm

Explanation:

Step1: Find the unit rate

We know that in 4 minutes, Nuka weaves 7 cm. To find the length per minute, we calculate the rate as length divided by time. So the rate $r$ is $\frac{7}{4}$ cm per minute.

Step2: Calculate length in 5 minutes

Now, to find the length $L$ woven in 5 minutes, we multiply the rate by the time. So $L = r\times5=\frac{7}{4}\times5=\frac{35}{4} = 8.75$ cm.

Answer:

8.75
