Answer:

The number of fries and shakes sold are 70 and 35 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of fries sold can be denoted by <em>x</em>.

The number of shakes sold can be denoted by <em>y</em>.

The equation representing the total number of items sold is:

<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 105...(i)

The cost fries is, $2.

The cost of shakes is, $3.

The equation representing the total money earned is:

2<em>x</em> + 3<em>y</em> = 245...(ii)

Solve equations (i) and (ii) simultaneously as follows:

Multiply equation (i) by 3 and subtract:

3x + 3y = 315

2x + 3y = 245

(-)     (-)      (-)

___________

x = 70

Compute the value of <em>y</em> as follows:

x + y = 105

70 + y = 105

y = 105 - 70

y = 35

Thus, the number of fries and shakes sold are 70 and 35 respectively.

Which composition of transformations maps figure EFGH to figure E"F"G"H"?
Lostsunrise [7]

The  composition of transformations maps figure EFGH to figure E"F"G"H" is Option A.a reflection across line k followed by a translation down.

<h3>What is translation?</h3>

A translation can be explained as the movement of a shape in a direction which could be up, down but the appearance of the figure remain unchanged in any other way.

And from the figure, we can see that a translation is used, because of the movement of EFGH to figure E"F"G"H" which occurred in the same direction.

Hence,  composition of transformations maps figure EFGH to figure E"F"G"H" is Option A.a reflection across line k followed by a translation down.
