Create and solve a linear equation that represents the model, where squares and triangles are shown evenly balanced on a balance beam. assume the weight of a square is 1 unit and the weight of a triangle is unknown.

Isuck at math ; ^; m a student solved this problem and said the answer is 3 feet. chase had a roll of ribbon that contained 7 7/8  feet of ribbon. he cut off one piece that was 3 5/8  feet long and another piece that was 1 1/4  feet from the roll. how much ribbon was left on the roll? is the student's answer reasonable? yes, the answer is reasonable. no, the answer is not reasonable. it should be about 2 feet. no, the answer is not reasonable. it should be about 13 feet. no, the answer is not reasonable. it should be about 4 feet.
