Water = 5 bottles * $0.90 = $4.50
meat = 8 pounds * x amount.

Total = water + meat prices = $26.90
26.90 = $4.50 + 8x
22.40 = 8x
2.8 = x

The price per pound of meat is $2.80.

A coordinate plane with two polygons is shown. Polygon EFGH has vertices E at 1 comma 1, F at 1 comma 4, G at 5 comma 4, and H a
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

B. A translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

Polygons EFGH and E′F′G′H′ are shown on the coordinate grid:

What set of transformations is performed on EFGH to form E′F′G′H′?

A. A translation 1 unit to the left followed by a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

B. A translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

C. A 90-degree clockwise rotation about the origin followed by a translation 2 units to the right

D. A 90-degree clockwise rotation about the origin followed by a translation 2 units to the left

Answer: Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, translation, dilation and rotation.

If a point X(x, y) is translated a units right and b units up, the new location is (x + a, y + b) also If a point X(x, y) is translated a units left and b units down, the new location is (x - a, y - b)

If a point X(x, y) rotated 90-degree counterclockwise about the origin, the new location is X'(-y, k)

Polygon EFGH has vertices E(1, 1), F(1, 4), G(5, 4), and H(4, 1). If the polygon is translated 1 unit right, the new location is E*(2, 1), F*(2, 4), G*(6, 4) and H*(5, 1).

If it is then rotated 90-degree counterclockwise about the origin, the new location is E'(-1, 2), F'(-4, 2), G'(-4, 6) and H'(-1, 5)

1. Arrange the numbers 5/3 ,6/2 and 2/7? in order from least to greatest ​
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

2/7, 5/3, 6/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2/7 is a proper fraction, so it's the smallest of these.

5/3 is greater than 1, but less than 2 & 6/2 is 3, so the order is 2/7, 5/3, 6/2.
