Joanna bought 7 notebooks and 14 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let x denote the number of notebooks and y denote the number of pencils Joanna bought.

Cost of one notebook = $ 2.30

Cost of one pencil = $1.42

Step 2 :

Total of notebooks and pencils bought  = 21

=> x + y = 21 => y = 21-x

Total cost of notebooks and pencils = $35.98

=> 2.3x + 1.42y = 35.98

Substituting y = 21- x here , we have,

2.3x + 1.42 ( 21-x) = 35.98

2.3x + 29.82 - 1.42x = 35.98

0.88 x = 6.16

=> x = 7

y = 21-x = 21-7 = 14

Step 3 :

Answer :

Joanna bought 7 notebooks and 14 pencils

Describe a similarity transformation that maps △ABC
PIT_PIT [208]

Let's start with a picture.

We see RST is smaller, and BC is parallel to but in the opposite direction to its corresponding segment ST.  Both have slope -1.

If we look at the difference of points (technically called vectors but we don't have to go there) we get

C-B=(-2,2)

T-S=(1,-1)

Without further calculation we can see T-S is half the length of C-B.

The problem asks for a dilation followed by a reflection.   We know the dilation scale is k=1/2 because the new triangle is half the size.  

After dilation we get A'B'C':

A'(3,2), B'(-1,0), C'(-2,1)

We see now we need a reflection that flips the coordinates x and y.  That's the +45° line through the origin, namely y=x.

Answer: k=1/2, y=x

Add the equations. What value belongs in the green box? 3x + 2y = 9 -x - 2y = 4 [?] + [?] = [?] A. 4x B. 2x C. -3x D. -2x​
Naddika [18.5K]

Consider the first blank is the green box.

Given:

The equations are

3x+2y=9

-x-2y=4

To find:

The value belongs in the green box

Solution:

We have,

3x+2y=9        ...(i)

-x-2y=4        ...(ii)

Adding (i) and (ii), we get

3x+2y-x-2y=9+4

(3x-x)+(2y-2y)=13

2x+0=13

So, the value for the first black is 2x. It means the value belongs in the green box is 2x.

The values of three blanks are 2x, 0 and 13 respectively.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
