Answer:

a. $3600

b. 6:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the question into an equation:

8x - 1/4 x 8x = 5x + 450

(simplify before solving) 6x = 5x + 450

(solve) 6x-5x = 450

x = 450

This means that Jimmy had 8 x 450 $ to start with = 3600

you can check this by subtracting a quarter of 3600 from 3600 and also multiplying 450 by 5 and then obtaining their difference. You get 450!

Now ratio of new amounts:

Jimmy now has: $2700

John still has: $2250

so ratio is 2700:2250

simplify to 6:5

Hope this helps

Quadrilateral PUMA has coordinates at P(-5,-2), U(-1,2), M(4,-3), A(0,-7) and it is transformed by (x+3,y-5). Determined the ima
IgorLugansk [536]

The image of M is (7 , -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some transformation

  • If the point (x , y) translated horizontally to the right by h units  then its image is (x + h , y)
  • If the point (x , y) translated horizontally to the left by h units  then its image is (x - h , y)
  • If the point (x , y) translated vertically up by k units  then its image is (x , y + k)
  • If the point (x , y) translated vertically down by k units  then its image is (x , y - k)

∵ The quadrilateral PUMA has coordinates at:

   P (-5 , -2) , U (-1 , 2) , M (4 , -3) , A (0 , -7)

∵ It is transformed by (x + 3 , y - 5)

- That means the quadrilateral translated 3 units right and 5 units

   down, then we add each x-coordinate by 3 and subtract 5 from

   each y-coordinate

∵ The coordinates of point M are (4 , -3)

∴ The image of point M = (4 + 3 , -3 - 5)

∴ The image of point M = (7 , -8)

The image of M is (7 , -8)
