Answer:

He sold 7 more small boxes than large boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no of small boxes sold .

Cost of 1 small boxes of oranges = $5

Cost of x small boxes of oranges = 5x

Let y be the no. of large boxes sold

Cost of 1 large boxes of oranges = $9

Cost of y large boxes of oranges = 9y

He sold 17 boxes in all total for 105

So,x+y=17 ---1

So,5x+9y=105 ---2

Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2

5x+9(17-x)=105

5x+153-9x=105

153-105=4x

\frac{153-105}{4}=x

12=x

Substitute value of x in 1

12+y=17

y=17-12

y=5

Difference in no. of boxes = 12-5 = 7

So, He sold 7 more small boxes than large boxes

You need to translate the angles using this function (x,y) to (x+3,y-3)
first of all find A and B and C
A=(0,3),B=(-1,1),C=(2,1)
After the translation
A'=(3,0),B'=(2,-2),C'=(5,-2)

What is the value of x?<br><br>enter your answer in the box<br><br>X__​
vfiekz [6]
<h3>Answer: x = 5</h3>

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

Work Shown:

Angle Bisector Theorem

9/(2x-1) = 15/3x

9*3x = 15(2x-1) ... cross multiply

27x = 30x-15

27-30x = 30x-15-30x ... subtract 30x from both sides

-3x = -15

-3x/(-3) = -15/(-3) .... divide both sides by -3

x = 5
