Answer:

trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Rita paid $82 for 5 trees and 1 shrub

5x+y= 82---------1

Lilly bought 2 trees and 1 shrub for $37

2x+y= 37----------2

from 1

y= 82-5x

put the value of y in 2

2x+82-5x= 37

2x-5x= 37-82

-3x=-45

x= 45/3

x=$15

put the value of x in 1

5(x)+y= 82

5*15+y=82

75+y=82

y=82-75

y=$7

Hence, trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Graph the image of the given triangle after the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y) .
Zarrin [17]

Firstly, we will select three corner points

A=(2,3)

B=(6,8)

C=(7,4)

we are given

the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y)

y--->-y

so, it is reflected about x-axis

so, we will multiply y-value by -1

we get new points as

A=(2,-3)

B=(6,-8)

C=(7,-4)

now, we can locate these points and draw graph

we get

Ashley has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 2 mint sticks, 4 jelly treats, and 14 fruit tart chews. If she eats one piece every 8 mi
AleksAgata [21]
The probability that her first treat is jelly is 4/20. Since she eats the candy and does not replace it, the probability the second treat is jelly would be 3/19 (1 less jelly and 1 less total candies). You would then multiply (4/20) by (3/19). That is your answer.
