Response:

14

Detailed Explanation:

Caitlin purchases a quantity of apples that is double that of the oranges.

2a=o

The price of apples is 0.25 and the price of oranges is 0.30, and she has a total of 5 to spend.

5-2a(0.30)-0.25a=0

5=2a(0.30)-0.25a\\5=0.6a-0.25a\\5=0.35a\\a=14

Both A and B.

This is due to the fact that X=3 cleanly divides the rectangle into two equal halves, causing any reflection to resemble the original shape.

Additionally, any shape with two lines of symmetry, when rotated 180 degrees, will align with one of the axes of symmetry and appear the same as the original shape.
