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

Transformation Rule:<br> Translate 4 units right and 3 units up.<br> B<br> Х<br> A
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation of a point (h, k) by 'a' units to the right and 'b' units upwards is defined by,

(h, k) → (h + a, k +b)

Coordinates of A → (-4, -2)

Coordinates of B → (1, -1)

Coordinates of C → (0, -5)

If these points are shifted 4 units right and 3 units up,

By applying rules of the translation,

Coordinates of image point A' → (-4 + 4, -2 + 3)

                                                    → (0, 1)

Coordinates of B' → (1 + 4, -1 + 3)

                             → (5, 2)

Coordinates of C' → (0 + 4, -5 + 3)

                             → (4, -2)

Now plot these points on the graph.
