Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf 1 \ crate = \frac{15}{14} \ lbs}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf \frac{2}{3}\  of \ a\ crate = \frac{5}{7} \ of \ a\ pound \\\\We \ need \ to \ find\ the \ weight \ of \ one \ crate\\\\So, Multiplying \ both \ sides \ by \ the\ reciprocal \ of \ \frac{2}{3} \ i.e. \frac{3}{2} \\\\1 \ crate = \frac{5}{7} * \frac{3}{2} \ lbs\\\\1 \ crate = \frac{5*3}{7*2} \ lbs\\\\1 \ crate = \frac{15}{14} \ lbs

Answer:

1 1/14 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

2/3 crate        1 crate

----------------- = -----------------

5/7 lb                 x lbs

Using cross products

2/3x = 5/7 *1

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2 * 2/3 x = 3/2 * 5/7

x = 15/14

x = 1 1/14

A polygon has coordinates A(-7, 8), B(-4, 6), C(-4, 3), D(-8, 3), and E(-9, 6). What are the coordinates of its image, polygon A
Burka [1]
The correct answer is third set of points: <span>A′(6, 10), B′(4, 7), C′(1, 7), D′(1, 11), E′(4, 12) 
</span><span>
We can figure out this answer, just by looking at the first point A. If we rotate it 270 degree counterclockwise, if will go from the second quadrant to the first quadrant. 

The new point will be (8, 7). If we move left 2 and up 3, we will be at the point (6, 10). Only the second choice matches this.</span>
