Answer:

There are 15 boxes of 10 oz boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boxes of 10 oz = x

and let the number of boxes of 16 oz = y

By the statement

"Total number of boxes sold is 24"

Equation for the statement will be

x + y =24 ---------------(1)

By the  statement

"she collected $97.50 while rate of 10 oz box is $3.50 and rate of 16 oz box is $5.00."

Equation for the statement will be

1.5x + 5y = $97.50 ------------(2)

From equation (1) we put the value of y = 24 - x in equation (2)

1.5x + 5(24 - x) =  97.50

1.5x + 120 - 5x = 97.50

-3.5x = 97.50 - 120

3.5x = 22.50

x = \frac{22.5}{1.5}

x = 15

Therefore, number of 10 oz boxes is 15.

Olin [163]

Answer:

<u>Option B. Side YZ is the same length as side Y'X'.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

At first the image is for the given question

The true graph is the attached figure.

As shown at the attached figure.

XYZ is reflected across the y-axis and then translated down 6 units to form X'Y'Z'.

So, X' is the image of point X

     Y' is the image of point Y

     Z' is the image of point Z

And ΔXYZ ≅ ΔX'YΔ'Z'

And the corresponding length are congruent.

We will check the options:

A. X has the same measure as X'. ⇒ True

B. Side YZ is the same length as side Y'X'. ⇒ Wrong

Because YZ will be translated to Y'Z'

C. Z has the same measure as Z'. ⇒ True

D. Side XZ is the same length as side X'Z'. ⇒ True

<u>So, The answer is option B. Side YZ is the same length as side Y'X'.</u>

Is 16to 14 and 64to60 equivalent
stiks02 [169]
NO. They are not.

We can prove this by turning those numbers into fractions:

16 / 14 = 1.1428  ;  64 / 60 = 1.0667

Or simply:

64 / 16 = 4
60 / 14 = 4.29

To get the equivalent of 16 to 14; we must multiply both numbers by 4.

16 * 4 = 64
14 * 4 = 56

The equivalent of 16 to 14 is 64 to 56.
