Given:
Number of jelly beens in the car: 785,000
Number of jelly beans in a bag: 800

Number of bags needed to fill the car?

785,000 / 800 = 981.25

Randall claimed = more than 981 bags
Susie claimed = exactly 981 bags.

Randall is correct. More than 981 bags.

981 x 800 = 784,800  

There is a missing 200 jelly beans if exactly 981 bags were used. Thus, a quarter of the 982nd bag is used to complete the 785,000 jelly beans.

Find the image of (–7, –3) reflected across the x-axis. A. (–7, 3) B. (7, –3) C. (7, 3) D. (–7, –3)
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

(-7, -3) (Answer A)

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the point (-7, -3).  The x-coordinate does not change at all if we reflect this point across the x-axis.  Whereas the y-value of (-7, -3) is -3, we end up with +3 after this reflection.  The desired image is (-7, +3)  (Answer A)
