65 candies are not orange.

So there are 80 M&M candies. So that's the total, which is called the denominator in fraction. Now 15 of them are orange, so if we had a fraction bar out of 15, we would shade in 15. Now the amount that is left over is 65 M&M candies, which are going to be the numerator.

Answer : 65/80 candies are not orange.

Hope that Helped :)

Emily and Lily are reading the same copy of the same book for a summer reading assignment.

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

emily : 16 + 22x....with x being the number of days

Lily : 24 + 18x

16 + 22x = 24 + 18x

22x - 18x = 24 - 16

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2 <==== they will be on the same page in 2 days

16 + 22x = 16 + 22(2) = 16 + 44 = 60

24 + 18x = 24 + 18(2) = 24 + 36 = 60

and they will both be on page 60 <===

A right triangle has legs of lengths 6 and 15 inches. Find the length of the hypotenuse (nearest tenth).

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is 16.2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

$c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2}$

$c^{2} = 6^{2} + 15^{2}$

$c^{2} = 36 + 225$

$c^{2} = 261$

$\sqrt{c^{2} } = \sqrt{261}$

$c = 16.2$

8x - y = 54
8x + 2y = 60

subtracting, we get -3y = -6
y = 2
x = 7

A. Transform F using the rule (x, y) → (-x, y) (1 pt.)

serg [7]

Answer:

A: (-3,4) (-3,6) (-5,6) (-7,4)

B: The transformation would be described as a reflection over the y axis

C: The transformation does result in a congruent figure because the shape doesn't change in size or shape and in length or width

Step-by-step explanation:

So our plots from the figure are: (3,4) (3,6) (5,6) (7,4)

So using the rule (x, y) → (-x, y) are new points would be:

(-3,4)

(-3,6)

(-5,6)

(-7,4)

This rule (x, y) → (-x, y) is used for the type of transformation that is a reflection but over the y axis.
