Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation for X is
use proportion to solve
2 + x = 16
x = 14
(14,y)
The equation for Y is
use proportion to solve
-1 + y = 6
y = 7
(14,7)
now use the distance formula
(14,7) (2,-1)
which gets you 14.4 or C
Given, To make a strawberry shortcake for one person, we need :
▪︎ cup of strawberry
▪︎one shortbread biscuit
Quantity of strawberries Elisa has = 3 cups
