An animal shelter has a total of 275 animals composed of dogs and cats. The number of cats is 5 more than one half of the number of dogs. How many dogs are in the shelter?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: There are 180 dogs in the shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "c" the number of cats in the shelter and "d" the number of dogs in the shelter.

You know that the total number of dogs and cats in the animal shelter is 275. Then you can express this with:

[tex]d+c=275[/tex]

If the number of cats is 5 more than one half of the number of dogs, you can express it with:

[tex]c=\frac{d}{2}+5[/tex]

Then, substitute [tex]c=\frac{d}{2}+5[/tex] into [tex]d+c=275[/tex] and solve for "d" to calculate the number of dogs that are in the shelter. Then:

[tex]d+c=275\\\\d+\frac{d}{2}+5=275\\\\d+\frac{d}{2}=275-5\\\\\frac{2d+d}{2}=270\\\\\frac{3d}{2}=270\\\\3d=270*2\\\\d=\frac{540}{3}\\\\d=180[/tex]

Answer:

First choice: m = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation is already solved for n, so lets's use the substitution method and substitute m - 2 for n in the first equation.

m - 2n = 8

m - 2(m - 2) = 8

m - 2m + 4 = 8

-m + 4 = 8

-m = 4

m = -4

The second equation tells you what 'n' is.  It's "m-2" .

So you can simply write "m-2" in place of 'n' in the first equation.

Then the first equation says [ m - 2(m-2) = 8 ], and you should have no trouble solving that.

a cone and a sphere have the same volume. the height of the cone is 96 units. what would be the values for the radius of the cone and the sphere?

Answers

Answer:

The radius = 24 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that the 2 radii are equal  then:

1/3 pi r^2 * 96 = 4/3 pi r^3

then:

4/3 pi r^3 / 32 pi r^2 = 1

4/3r^3 / 32 r^2 = 1

4/3 r * 1/ 32 = 1

r = 32 * 3/4

= 24.

Answer options:
18pi ft2

3pi ft2

Answers

Answer:

18π ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Sector = [tex]\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2[/tex]

Where

[tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle of the sector (in our case it is 45°), and

r is the radius (which is 12 ft)

So we plug these into the formula and get our answer to be:

[tex]A=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2\\A=\frac{45}{360}*\pi (12)^2\\A=\frac{1}{8}\pi*144\\A=18\pi[/tex]

This is our answer: 18π

Answer:

   = 18 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sector is given by the formula;

Area = θ/360 × πr² ; where θ is the angle subtended by the arc to the center, r is the radius.

Therefore;

Area = 45/360 × π ×12²

        = 18 ft²

ason buys a pizza for $\$15.59$. He also buys $6$ sodas. Each soda costs the same amount. He spends $\$23.33$ on the pizza and the sodas.

Jason finds the cost of each soda by calculating $(23.33\ -\ 15.59)\ \div\ 6$. Tim finds the cost of each soda by solving the equation $15.59\ +\ 6c\ =\ 23.33$, where $c$ is the cost of each soda.

Which approach uses the sequence of operations necessary to find the cost of each soda: Jason’s, Tim’s, both, or neither? Explain why.



Answers

Answer:

Both because they're basically the same thing ;-;

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 23.33 - 15.59 = 7.29

  7.74/6 = 1.29 So he bought 1 soda ;-;

2) 15.59 + 6c = 23.33 - Subtract 15.59 from both sides:

    6c = 7.74 - Divide both sides by 6

    c = 1.29 So he bought 1 soda again

The rest of the money is probably the tax so ;-;

Round to the given place: 340,413 (hundred thousands)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 300,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hundred thousand would be one hundred (100) and a thousand, which is three zeroes. So we put three zeroes after 100 and we get 100,000. So in this case we're rounding to 300,000.

Answer:

The answer is:   300,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Hundred thousand is the natural number which follows 99,999 and 100,001.

Hence, the number is given by: 100,000.

Hence, when we round any number to the hundred thousand then there  must be 5 zeros in the number.

i.e. the number 340,413  rounding to the nearest hundred thousand is given by:  300000

( Since the first digit i.e. 3 is at the hundred thousand place and all the number that precedes this place is converted to 0 )

Help me with this question

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an even polynomial because both ends end up. This means the degree of the polynomial is even. This means b and c are not solutions since their degrees are odd.

To determine between A and D look at the x-intercepts. The x-intercepts of a polynomial graph have a special relationship with its equation. The x-intercepts are the solutions or roots of the factors. This means that when each factor is set equal to 0 and solved, its solution is an x-intercept. Here the x-intercepts are x = -1, 0,3. This means the factors are x(x+1)(x-3).

Notice at x = -1, the function touches but does not cross? This means the factor has an even exponent on it.

So the expression is likely x(x+1)^2 (x-3).

Since only one factor has an exponent, the answer is A.

Your gross income is $4,520.00/month. Your deductions are FICA (7.65%), federal tax withholding (11.75%), and state tax withholding (8.5%). Your fixed expenses are 30% of your realized income. You saved 5 months' worth in an emergency fund, placing 75% in a 60-day CD at a 5.25% APR and the rest in a regular savings account at a 3.8% APR. What is the total amount of your emergency fund? How much is in the CD and savings account? How much is the total interest earned between both accounts in 60 days?

Answers

The emergency fund total amount is [tex]$\boxed{\$11,413.78}$[/tex]. The amount in CD is [tex]$\boxed{\$8,557.334}$[/tex]. The amount in savings account: [tex]$\boxed{\$2,853.445}$[/tex]. Total interest earned: [tex]$\boxed{\$94.896695}$[/tex].

 

To solve this problem, we will follow these steps:

1. Calculate the total deductions from the gross income.

2. Determine the realized income after deductions.

3. Calculate the fixed expenses based on the realized income.

4. Compute the amount saved in the emergency fund.

5. Divide the emergency fund into the portions for the CD and the savings account.

6. Calculate the interest earned on both the CD and the savings account over 60 days.

7. Sum the interest earned from both accounts to find the total interest.

Let's begin:

1. Calculate Total Deductions:

Gross income = $4,520.00/month

FICA = 7.65% of gross income

Federal tax withholding = 11.75% of gross income

State tax withholding = 8.5% of gross income

Total deductions = FICA + Federal tax withholding + State tax withholding

Total deductions = 0.0765 × $4,520 + 0.1175 × $4,520 + 0.085 × $4,520

2. Determine Realized Income:

Realized income = Gross income - Total deductions

3. Calculate Fixed Expenses:

Fixed expenses = 30% of realized income

4. Compute the Amount Saved in the Emergency Fund:

Emergency fund = 5 months' worth of realized income after fixed expenses

Emergency fund = 5 × (Realized income - Fixed expenses)

5. Divide the Emergency Fund:

75% in a CD and 25% in a savings account

CD amount = 0.75 × Emergency fund

Savings account amount = 0.25 × Emergency fund

6. Calculate Interest Earned:

Interest on CD = CD amount × (5.25% APR / 12) × (60 / 30)

Interest on savings = Savings account amount × (3.8% APR / 12) × (60 / 30)

7. Calculate Total Interest Earned:

Total interest = Interest on CD + Interest on savings

Now, let's perform the calculations:

1. Total deductions = 0.0765 × $4,520 + 0.1175 × $4,520 + 0.085 × $4,520

Total deductions = $344.28 + $530.44 + $384.20

Total deductions = $1,258.92

2. Realized income = $4,520 - $1,258.92

Realized income = $3,261.08

3. Fixed expenses = 0.30 × $3,261.08

Fixed expenses = $978.324

4. Emergency fund = 5 × ($3,261.08 - $978.324)

Emergency fund = 5 × $2,282.756

Emergency fund = $11,413.78

5. CD amount = 0.75 × $11,413.78

CD amount = $8,557.334

Savings account amount = 0.25 × $11,413.78

Savings account amount = $2,853.445

6. Interest on CD = $8,557.334 × (0.0525 / 12) × 2

Interest on CD = $8,557.334 × 0.004375 × 2

Interest on CD = $76.640625

Interest on savings = $2,853.445 × (0.038 / 12) × 2

Interest on savings = $2,853.445 × 0.0031667 × 2

Interest on savings = $18.25607

7. Total interest = $76.640625 + $18.25607

Total interest = $94.896695

A cake recipe calls for 425 grams of flour about how many pounds of flour do you need? use the conversion factors
1 ounce 1 pound
————- and —————
28.4 grams 16 ounces

Answers

Final answer:

To convert 425 grams of flour to pounds, you can set up a proportion and solve for X. The answer is approximately 1.898 pounds.

Explanation:

To convert grams to pounds, we can use the conversion factor:
1 ounce    1 pound
————- and —————

28.4 grams  16 ounces

To convert 425 grams of flour to pounds, we can set up a proportion:

X pounds    425 grams

16 ounces     28.4 grams

To solve for X, we can cross-multiply and then divide:

X pounds = (425 grams x 16 ounces) / 28.4 grams

Calculating this, we find that X = 1.8978 pounds of flour.

A sphere has a volume of V=324 in^3. Find it's surface area ​

Answers

Final answer:

To find the surface area of the sphere, we can use the formula Surface Area = 4πr². By substituting the given volume value into the volume formula and solving for r, we find that the radius of the sphere is 3 inches. Substituting this radius value into the surface area formula, we find that the surface area is 36π square inches.

Explanation:

To find the surface area of a sphere, we can use the formula:

Surface Area = 4πr2

Given that the volume of the sphere is 324 in3, we can use the volume formula to find the radius:

Volume = (4/3)πr3

By substituting the volume value (324) into the volume formula and solving for r, we find that the radius of the sphere is 3 inches. Now, we can substitute this radius value into the surface area formula to find the surface area:

Surface Area = 4π(3)2

Calculating this expression, we get a surface area of 36π square inches.
