Well if the girl sold the same number of larges but one less small and she made $5 less, then you know that the small boxes are $5. From there take the equation 2s + 7L =52 and subtract 10 from 52 (the two small boxes equal 10) You're left over with 7L= 42 so then do 42/7 = $6 per big box

So First of you'd make equations using what we know 3s+7L=57 2s+7L=52
so because these equations have only a difference of one small box this tells us that one small box is $5 so then using the second equation we can find the value of the large boxes 2(5)+7L=52 7L=42. 42/7=6 one large box is $6.

The Numerator is 1, which is the top. The Denominator is the 8. I like to remember (D)own is the (D)enominator.

What TWO expressions equal 12−(−33) ?

erastova [34]

Answer:

12+33 and 33 - (-12)

Step-by-step explanation:

12 - (-33) = 45

12 + 33 gives us 45

33 - (-12) gives us 45

A city planner designs a park that is a quadrilateral with vertices at J(-3,1), K(1,3), L(5,-1), and M(-1,-3). There is an entra

Ksivusya [100]

The Quadrilateral is JKLM,

let $M_{JK}, M_{KL}, M_{LM}, M_{JM},$ be the midpoints of JK, KL, LM and JM respectively.

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

Given any 2 point P(m,n) and Q(k,l),<span>

the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment PQ are given by the formula:

$M_{PQ}=( \frac{m+k}{2} ,
\frac{n+l}{2})$ , </span>

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

thus the coordinates of points $M_{JK}, M_{KL}, M_{LM}, M_{JM},$

are as follows:

$M_{JK}= (\frac{-3+1}{2}, \frac{1+3}{2})=(-1,2), \\\\M_{KL}= (\frac{1+5}{2}, \frac{3-1}{2}=(3,1), \\\\M_{LM}= (\frac{5-1}{2}, \frac{-1-3}{2})=(2, -2),\\\\ M_{JM}= (\frac{-3-1}{2}, \frac{1-3}{2})=(-2,-1)$

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

The distance between any 2 points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) in the coordinate plane, is given by the formula:<span>

$|PQ|= \sqrt{ (a-c)^{2} + (b-d)^{2}
}$ </span>
