f potatoes that Amanda bought, she bought 4.5 pounds of onions. Jessica bought broccoli and onions. For every 18 pounds of broccoli that Jessica bought, she bought 4 pounds of onions.

First, we determine the number of onions bought by Amanda using the given ratio above,

      O1 = (60 lbs potato)(4.5 lbs onion/18 lbs potato)
       O1 = 15 lbs onions

This should also be the same as the amount of onions bought by Jessica. With this, we can then determine the amount of broccoli bought by Jessica given the ratios.

         B = (15 lbs onions)(18 lbs broccoli/4 lbs onions)
                 B = 67.5 lbs broccoli.

Answer: 67.5 lbs broccoli

Triangle MNP is dilated according to the rule DO,1.5 (x,y)Right arrow(1.5x, 1.5y) to create the image triangle M'N'P, which is n
Vikki [24]

Given:

The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).

The rule of dilation is:

(x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)

The image of triangle MNP after dilation is M'N'P'.

To find:

The coordinates of the endpoints of segment M'N'.

Solution:

The end points of MN are M(-4, 6) and N(2, 6).

The rule of dilation is:

(x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)

Using this rule, we get

M(-4,6)\to M'(1.5(-4),1.5(6))

M(-4,6)\to M'(-6,9)

And,

N(2,6)\to N'(1.5(2),1.5(6))

N(2,6)\to N'(3,9)

The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).

Therefore, the correct option is B.
