Answer:

The number of shirts sewn at most, when there is just 1 spool of thread left is;


5\text{ shirts}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a graph that relates the number of spools of thread left to the number of shirts sewn.

We want to find the number of shirts sewn at most, when there is just 1 spool of thread left.

To get that, let us draw a straight horizontal line from y=1 (spools of thread remaining =1) to join the line of the graph and also trace it down.

Tracing the line down we can observe that it is at shirt sewn equals 5.

So, the number of shirts sewn at most, when there is just 1 spool of thread left is;


5\text{ shirts}
