In order to find out how many spools of threads are in the box, take the weight of the box, and divide it by how much each spool weighs:

8 divided by 1/2 < this is your equation. When dividing fractions, you keep the first value (8), switch the operation (so instead of dividing, you are now multiplying) and you flip the second value (1/2 becomes 2/1). Your new equation should be:

8 (or 8/1) x 2/1 which is basically saying 8 x 2, which equals 16.

Answer: There are 16 spools of thread in the box.

If the translation of (x,y)->(x-5, y+2) was applied to the triangle ABC below, what would be the coordinates for A' after the

Rainbow [258]

Answer: (-3,0)

To get this answer, we subtract 5 from the x coordinate and add 2 to the y coordinate. Point A is located at (x,y) = (2,-2) so we see that x = 2 and y = -2

Subtract 5 from the x coordinate: x-5 = 2-5 = -3. The new x coordinate is -3

Add 2 to the y coordinate: y+2 = -2+2 = 0. The new y coordinate is 0.

Therefore, using the rule (x,y) --> (x-5,y+2) has the mapping (2,-2) ---> (-3,0)
