A baker purchased 12 lb of wheat flour and 15 lb of rye flour for a total cost of $18.30. A second purchase at the same prices,

included 15 lb of wheat flour and 10 lb of rye flour. The cost of the second purchase was $16.75. Find the cost per pound of the wheat flour and the rye flour.

12w+15r=18.30 /*2
15w+10r=16.75 /*3

24w+30r=36.60, subtract this equation from the other one
45w+30r=50.25

21w=13.65
w=13.65/21
w=0.65 is a cost per pound for wheat flour

From the first equation we have
r=(18.30-12w)/15
r=(18.30-12*0.65)/15
r=0.70 is a cost per pound for rye flour

Which rule yields the dilation of the figure QRST centered at the origin?
denis-greek [22]

A) (x, y) → (3x, 3y)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When you dilate an object, you enlarge or reduce the size of it. To do this, we need a scale factor which allows us to make the object larger or smaller depending on the value of that factor. Let's call this factor as k, then it is true that:

  • If k > 1, the object will be larger than the original one.
  • If k < 1, the object will be smaller than the original one.

If the dilation is performed centered at the origin, then corresponding points of the original and dilated figures will be connected by straight lines, being the center of dilation the point where all the lines meet.

The only option that meets this requirement is:

A) (x, y) → (3x, 3y)

Whose scale factor is k = 3 making the dilated figure larger than the original one.

What is the birthday polynomial for 10/1/2006
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Simplified version: 10x^5 - 1x^4 + 2x^3 - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your birthday is 10/1/2006 we can use 1012006 as our digits.

We can make a random polynomial: 10x^5 - 1x^4 + 2x^3 + 0 x^2 + 0x - 6

(since  0 are meaningless we can simply this further into the below equation)

10x^5 - 1x^4 + 2x^3 - 6

An angle bisector always creates two acute angles. find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
An acute angle is an angle that is less than 90°. An angle bisector is a ray drawn along an angle that bisects it into two equal and adjacent parts. Now, if the total angle is, say 270°, which is more than a half circle, it would result to two 135-degree angles. In this case, the angle is no longer acute, but obtuse.
