The average weight per box is the total weight divided by the number of boxes.

... (486 pounds)/(27 boxes) = 18 pounds/box

The average weight of each box is 18 pounds,

The answer would be C. (He counted Yolanda's candy as his own).

This is found by multiplying 500 (starting number of candy) and .64 (percentage divided by a hundred). Thjs would guve you 320, which you would then subtract from the starting number of candy (500) to get 180. 180 is Yolanda's number of candy, which gives you the answer.

Which congruence theorem can be used to prove △WXS ≅ △YZS? Triangles W X S and Y Z S are connected at point S. Angles W X S and

iVinArrow [24]

Point S makes the two connected angles the same. They both have right angles.

And one side of each is congruent.

This means you know 2 angles are the same and one side is the same.

You would use ASA (Angle, Side, Angle)

The augmented matrix of a system of equations has been transformed to an equivalent matrix inâ€‹ row-echelon form. Usingâ€‹ x, y

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: The system of equations is:

x + 2y + 2 = 4

y - 3z = 9

z = - 2

The solution is: x = -22; y = 15; z = -2;

Step-by-step explanation: ONe way of solving a system of equations is using the Gauss-Jordan Elimination.

The method consists in transforming the system into an augmented matrix, which is writing the system in form of a matrix and then into a Row Echelon Form, which satisfies the following conditions:

There is a row of all zeros at the bottom of the matrix;
The first non-zero element of any row is 1, which called leading role;
The leading row of the first row is to the right of the leading role of the previous row;

For this question, the matrix is a Row Echelon Form and is written as:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&2\\0&1&3\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\9\\-2\end{array}\right]$
