Answer:

  • Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y

<u>Set a system and solve:</u>

  • 3x + 5y = 20
  • 6x + 2y = 14

<u>Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:</u>

  • 6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
  • 8y = 26
  • y = 26/8
  • y = 3.25

<u>Find the value of x:</u>

  • 6x + 3.25*2 = 14
  • 6x = 14 - 6.5
  • 6x = 7.5
  • x = 7.5/6
  • x = 1.25

Triangle CAT is transformed to produce triangle DOG.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Using transformations and congruency concepts, it is found that with these following transformations, the triangles will be congruent.

  • A reflection, then a translation.
  • A rotation, then a reflection.

--------------------------

  • Two triangles are congruent if they have the <u>same lengths</u> of the sides and the <u>same angles.</u>
  • In a reflection, there is a rule that changes the <u>coordinates (x,y)</u>, but does <u>not </u>change <u>the lengths</u> of the sides of the triangles, thus they will still be congruent.
  • A <u>reflection is also a special case of rotation</u>, thus, in a rotation, the triangles are also congruent.
  • A translation is also similar to a reflection, using rules to shift the triangle up, down, left or right according to it's coordinates, not changing the sides or angles, thus congruent.
  • In a dilation, the <u>lengths of the sides are changed</u>, thus, the triangles will not be congruent.

--------------------------

Thus, from the bullet points above, the correct options are:

  • A reflection, then a translation.
  • A rotation, then a reflection.

A rectangular goat pen has an area of 40 square meters. Its perimeter is 26 meters. What are the dimensions of the pen?
xxMikexx [17]
Let the dimensions be x and y

Given that the area is 40m²
xy = 40 ----------------- (1)

Given that the perimeter is 26
2(x + y) = 26
x + y = 13
x = 13 - y ---------------- Sub into (1)

(13 - y)y = 40
13y - y² = 40
y² - 13y + 40 = 0
(y - 8)(y - 5) = =
y = 8 or y = 5

The dimensions are 8 meters and 5 meters
