first off, let's convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then proceed, let's notice that by PEMDAS or order of operations, the multiplication is done first, and then any sums.

-- Reflecting across the x-axis makes all the x-coordinates the negative of
what they were before the reflection. The y-coordinates don't change.
-- Translating 2 units up makes all the y-coordinates 2 greater than
they were before the translation. The x-coordinates don't change.
You didn't give us a list of new coordinates, so there's nothing
to match with.
Answer: 11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:
- <em>Gallons of corn syrup used: 8
</em>
- <em>Pieces of candy produced: 1,776
</em>
- <em>gallons of corn syrup per hour: 52
</em>
If we apply proportions:
8 /1,776 = 52/x
Where x is the pieces of candy made per hour.
Solving
x = 52x1, 776 /8
x = 11,544
11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.
120% of 12 is 14.4.I got this by doing this:
12/x=100/120
<span>(12/x)*x=(100/120)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>12=0.833333333333*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.833333333333) to get x
<span>12/0.833333333333=x </span>
<span>14.4=x </span>
<span>x=14.4</span>
