1 answer:

Sindrei [870]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:
Sam gets £30 and Bethan gets £24.
Why?
When dealing with ratios, add up the numbers in the ratio.
5 + 4 = 9
Now, divide the total amount of money by that number.
£54/9 = 6
Now you have the base rate. Multiply each quantity in the ratio by this number.
5*6 = 30
4*6 = 24
Now, the ratio is (in euro) 30:24. This means that Sam has £30 and Bethan has £24.
Check:
30 + 24 = 54

Answer:

The equations 9x+8y=14100 and x = y+150 are in the simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Russian blue kitten costs $150 more than Manx kitten.

Cost of 9 blue kittens and 8 Manx kittens = $14100

Let,

x be the price of one Russian blue kitten.

y be the price of one Manx kitten.

According to given statement;

9x+8y=14100

x = y+150

Hence,

The equations 9x+8y=14100 and x = y+150 are in the simplest form.

Which steps transform the graph of

vitfil [10]

Answer:

The correct option is the last one.

Step-by-step explanation:

To transform the graph of $y = x ^ 2$ into $y = -2(x - 2) ^ 2 + 2$ the following steps are fulfilled:

1) Move the graph 2 units to the right:

Let $y = f (x-2)$ then $y =(x-2) ^ 2$ Notice that the cut point has been moved to x = 2.

2) Reflect on the x axis:

To reflect a graph on the x-axis we do $y = -f(x)$ Then $f (x) = -(x-2) ^ 2$

3) Stretch according to factor 2.

For this we do $y = 2f(x)$

Then we have $f(x) = -2 (x-2) ^ 2$

4) Move up the graph in two units:

We do $y = f(x) +2$

Then $y = -2(x-2) ^ 2 +2.$

These steps coincide with those listed in the last option. Therefore the correct option is the last one.

"Translate 2 units on the right, reflect on the x-axis, stretch according to the factor 2 and translate 2 units"
