A catering company is catering a large wedding reception. The host of the reception has asked the company to spend a total of $454 on two types of meat: chicken and beef. The
chicken costs $5 per pound, and the beef costs $ 7 per pound. If the catering company
buys 25 pounds of chicken, how many pounds of beef can they buy?

The answer is 47 pounds

Explanation:

1. First, let's calculate the amount of money that was spent on chicken

$5 per pound of chicken x 25 pounds = $125

2. Calculate the amount of money left to buy beef by subtracting the total spend on chicken to the total of the budget.

$454 (total) - $125 (chicken)  =  $329

3. Calculate how many pounds of beef you can buy with the money left by dividing the money into the price for one pound.

$329 / $7 = 47 pounds

the co-ordinates of the transformed rectangle are:

d. (0, 0), (0, 3), (-3, 3), (-3, 0)

step-by-step explanation:

from the columns of the given matrix, the co-ordinates of the rectangle before transformation are:

(0, 0), (0, 3), (3, 3), (3, 0)

r =

transformed matrix can be obtained by multiplying the given matrix by r:

columns of the transformed matrix are:

0   0   -3   -3

0   3     3     0

from the columns of the resulted matrix, we can see that the vertices of the transformed triangle are:

(0, 0), (0, 3), (-3, 3), (-3, 0)

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional
