If Jack gave 1/6 of the money to the theater and kept the rest, that means he kept 5/6 of the money. Multiply 18 by 5/6. 18* 5/6 = 15. Jack kept 15 ten dollar bills. Each bill is worth 10 dollars, so multiply 15 by 10. 15*10=150. Jack kept 150 dollars.

$150

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

  • Jack collected 18 ten dollar bills while selling tickets for a show.
  • He gave \frac{1}{6} of the bills to the theater and kept the rest.

<u>Question:</u>

How much money did he keep?

<u>The Process:</u>

From the information above, let us create a suitable diagram as follows:

\boxed{theater}\boxed{kept}\boxed{kept}\boxed{kept}\boxed{kept}\boxed{kept} = 18 \ ten \ dollar

  • \boxed{ \ 6 \ units = 18 \ ten \ dollar \ }
  • \boxed{ \ 1 \ units = 18 \div 6 = 3 \ ten \ dollar \ }

Let us calculate how much money did he keep.

Notice that he gave 1 unit of the bills to the theater and kept 5 units the rest.

\boxed{ \ 1 \ units = 3 \ ten \ dollar \ }

\boxed{ \ 5 \ units = 5 \div 3 = 15 \ ten \ dollar \ }

\boxed{ \ 15 \ ten \ dollar = 15 \times 10 \ dollar \ }

Thus he kept $150 the rest.

<u>Quick Steps:</u>

Jack gave \frac{1}{6} of the bills to the theater and kept the rest.

\boxed{ \ Theater = \frac{1}{6} \times \$ 180 \ dollar \ }

\boxed{ \ Theater = \frac{18}{6} \ or \ 18 \div 6 \ }

\boxed{ \ Theater = \$ 30 \ }

\boxed{ \ The \ rest = \$ 180 - \$ 30 \ }

Thus he kept $150 the rest.

C.) A <span>dilation with a scale factor of 4, with center of dilation at the origin

Here, You can either draw the figure or compare the coordinates, 
B = (4, 4) then B' = (1, 1)
C = (-4, 4) then C' = (-1, 1)
D = (-4, -4) then D' = (-1, -1)
E = (4, -4) then E' = (1, -1)

So, Every coordinate is reducing by 4th factor... Hence, dilation factor is 4 about the origin

Hope this helps!</span>
