Let us say there are x number of candies .

For first student,

He ate 3/20 of all candies, so 3/20 (x)

He also ate 1.2 lb of candies.

Total candies first student ate = (3/20) x +1.2

Second student ate 3/5 of all candies that is (3/5)x

He also ate 0.3 lb of candies.

Total candies second student ate = (3/5)x +0.3

Since total candies for both will be same, so equating the two expressions

\frac{3}{20} (x) +1.2 = \frac{3}{5} x +0.3

x=2

So there are 2 lb of candies in total.

First student ate = 0.3 +1.2 = 1.5lb of candies.

Second student ate = 1.5 lb of candies

Answer:

y = 3/2 x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2/3 x + 5; slope = -2/3

Perpendicular line, slope is reciprocal and opposite so slope of the line that is perpendicular to the y = -2/3 x + 5 is 3/2

Passes through (8,1)

Equation

y -1 = 3/2 (x - 8)

y - 1 = 3/2 x - 12

y = 3/2 x - 11

May I please get the answers to the first 4 of these problems?

Given:
A(3,0)
B(1,-2)
C(3,-5)
D(7,-1)

1) reflect across x=-4
essentially calculate the difference between the x=-4 line and Px and "add" it in the other direction to x=-4
A(-4-(3-(-4)),0)=A(-11,0)
B(-4-(1-(-4)),-2)=B(-9,-2)
C(-4-(3-(-4),-5))=C(11,-5)
D(-4-(7-(-4)),-1)=D(-15,-1)

2) translate (x,y)->(x-6,y+8)
A(-3,8)
B(-5,6)
C(-3,3)
D(1,7)

3) clockwise 90° rotation around (0,0), flip the x&y coordinates and then decide the signs they should have based on the quadrant they should be in
A(0,-3)
B(-2,-1)
C(-5,-3)
D(-1,-7)

D) Dilation at (0,0) with scale 2/3, essentially multiply all coordinates with the scale, the simple case of dilation, because the center point is at the origin (0,0)
A((2/3)*3,(2/3)*0)=A(2,0)
B((2/3)*1,(2/3)*-2)=B(2/3,-4/3)
C((2/3)*3,(2/3)*-5)=C(2,-10/3)
D((2/3)*7,(2/3)*-1)=D(14/3,-2/3)
