Answer:

WV = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ UVW and Δ XYW are similar ( by the AA postulate ) , then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion, that is

\frac{WV}{WY} = \frac{WU}{WX} ( substitute values )

\frac{WV}{18} = \frac{35}{15} ( cross- multiply )

15 WV = 630 ( divide both sides by 15 )

WV = 42

At a certain store, an 8-pound bag of flour costs $3.84. What is the cost per ounce
rusak2 [61]
Each ouch would be 0.24 cents I believe? Because I got a bunch of numbers and started x it by 16. So 0.24 cents times 16 ounces equals $3.84. Therefore the cost of a ounce of flour would be 0.24 cents.

Hope this helps..

Help I'm not comfortable with negative numbers
Gemiola [76]
B) < because the more negative or the farther away from zero a number is the smaller it is 
c) = because if you subtract a negative number you are basically adding
d) = because anytime you multiply a negative by positive your answer will always be negative

a) -11 because -8+3=-5 and -5-6=-11
b) 11 because when you multiply a negative number by another negative your answer will always be positive so -3x-2=6 and 6+5=11
c) -4 because a negative number divided by a positive is always negative 
d)42 because a negative number subtracted by a positive number makes a number more negative (btw always solve things in parenthesis first) so -4-3=-7 and again a negative multiplied by another negative is always positive so -7x-6=42
