Let x be the number of pounds of the $1.35 beans. The cost of those beans is $1.35 * x, or 1.35x.
<span>Let y be the number of pounds of the $1.05 beans. The cost of those beans is $1.05 * y, or 1.05y. </span>
<span>We know that 120 pounds of the mix sells for $1.15/pound, for a total of 120 * 1.15 = $138. </span>
<span>x + y = 120 </span>
<span>1.35(x) + (1.05)y = 138 </span>
<span>We can rewrite the first as </span>
<span>x = -y + 120 </span>
<span>Now we can substitute (-y + 120) in for (x) in the second equation, because we just proved they're equal. </span>
<span>1.35(x) + 1.05(y) = 138 </span>
<span>1.35(-y + 120) + 1.05y = 138 </span>
<span>-1.35y + 162 + 1.05y = 138 </span>
<span>-0.3y + 162 = 138 </span>
<span>-0.3y = -24 </span>
<span>y = 80 </span>
<span>And since x + y = 120, that means x = 40. </span>
<span>Check: </span>
<span>40 pounds of x at $1.35 costs 40 * 1.35, or $54. </span>
<span>80 pounds of y at $1.05 costs 80 * 1.05, or $84. </span>
<span>Do those add up to our target total, according to the question, of 120 * 1.15 = $138? </span>

Answer:
For this answer, I will label the points. Starting at the top left, then top right, then bottom left and bottom right let the points be A, B, C, D.
The new coordinates will be
A(-4,10)
B(4,10)
C(-4,4)
D(4,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for a dilation which is a transformation that makes an image proportionately smaller or larger by a scale factor. The scale factor is how much smaller or larger the shape will be, if the scale factor is between 0 and 1 then it will shrink, if it is greater than one then the image will stretch (be larger). In this case, the scale factor is 2, therefore the image will stretch. Since the center of dilation is the origin, to find the new coordinates simply multiply each x and y value by the scale factor. So A's original coordinates (-2,5) become (-4,10) and so forth. Therefore the equation for this dilation is (x, y) → (2x,2y).
