Answer:

Number of cookies sold by the Yummy Company = 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cookies sold by the yummy company be x.

Then the number of pies sold by The Chipper Bakery is 3/4 x.

When they have 16, more we have:

Number sold by the Yummy company is x + 16 and the number sold by the Bakery is 5/6 (x + 16)

So x + 3/4x + 2(16) = x + 16 + 5/6(x + 16)

= 7/4 x  + 32 =  11/6 x + 16 + 80/6

7/4 x - 11/6x = 16 + 80/6 - 32

-1/12 x = -2 2/3

x = -8/3 * -12

x = 32.

Answer:

Answers below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inititally as x increases, y remains the same.

Afterword, the slope = 2 for x = 3 to x = 5.

the slope = 1 for x =5 to x =9.

the greatest value of y is y = 4 when x = 5.

Can someone help me with this problem
Naily [24]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3><h3>The point Z ' is at (8,4)</h3><h3>The point Y ' is at (0,4)</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

The key thing here is that point Z does not move. Why not? Because this is where the center of dilation occurs. The center point is fixed. Everything around the center will expand away from, or contract toward, the center.

In this case, the scale factor is 4/5 = 0.8 which is less than 1. So points will contract toward the center. The old pre-image shrinks to make the image smaller.

Note how point Y = (-2,4) is 10 units away from point Z. You can count out the spaces or subtract the x coordinates. Use an absolute value to make sure the result is positive

|x1-x2| =  |-2-8| = |-10| = 10

|x2-x1| = |8-(-2)| = |8+2| = |10| = 10

So 0.8 times this distance is therefore 0.8*10 = 8 meaning that point Y' is going to be 8 units away from point Z' or Z.

Subtract 8 from the x coordinate of point Z to get x-8 = 8-8 = 0.

The y coordinate stays the same at y = 4 the whole time.

----------------------------------------

In short, point Y starts at (-2,4) and moves to (0,4)

Distance from Y to Z is 10 units

Distance from Y' to Z' is 8 units

8/10 = 4/5 = 0.8 is the scale factor

Point Z does not move. So Z and Z' are at the same location.

State whether the following statements are true or false, and explain your reasoning.
Masja [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A square is a rectangle.   True

Reason: Property of Rectangle: (i) Opposite sides are equal and parallel. (ii) Each angle is 90 (iii) Diagonals are equal and bisect each other.

A square hold all these properties. A square is  a rectangle.

b) A polygon with 21 sides has 432 possible diagonals. False

Reason: Number of diagonals of a polygon = \frac{n(n-3)}{2}

n --> number of sides of a polygon.

= \frac{21*18}{2} = 189 diagonals

c) All three angles in an Isosceles triangle are equal. False

Reason: In an isosceles triangle, two angles are equal.

If three angles are equal, then that is an equilateral triangle.

d) The measures of the exterior angles of a nonagon, a nine-sided figure, have a sum of 360°. True.

Reason: The sum of measures of the exterior angles  of any polygon is 360
