Martina has two dogs. The ratio of the dogs’ weights is 2:3. If the
total weight of the two dogs is 40 pounds, how much does each
dog weigh?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Dog 1: 16 pounds

Dog 2: 24 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3x=40

5x=40

x=8

2x = 16

3x=24

Answer 2

Answer:

The dogs' weights are 16 pounds and 24 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations:

Martina has two dogs. Their combined weight is 40 pounds. Let's set:

x       = weight of one of the dogs.

40-x = weight of the other dog

The ratio between them is 2:3, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{40-x}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Cross multiplying denominators:

3x = 2(40 - x)

Operating:

3x = 80 - 2x

Adding 2x:

5x = 80

Dividing by 5:

x = 80/5 = 16

x = 16 pounds

The weight of the other dog is 40-16=24 pounds.

The dogs' weights are 16 pounds and 24 pounds

The students at view side elementary school had a read a thon the teachers kept track of how many books the students in each grade level read estimate the total number of books the students read round each number to the nearest hundred to help you find your answer
Kindergarten 247, first grade 385 , second grade 1347 and third grade 1549

Answers

Answer:

Estimate = 3400 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Books read by students.

Kindergarten 247

First grade 385

Second grade  1347

Third grade 1549

We have to round the each number to nearest hundred.

247 rounded to the nearest hundred is 200.

385 rounded is 400

1347 rounded is 1300

1549 rounded is 1500

Total = 200 + 400 + 1300 + 1500 = 3400

Hence,

Estimate = 3400 books

ASAP determine whether the polygons are similar

Answers

Answer:

Not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

For two triangles to be similar , their sides should be in the same ratio. Here the sides are ,

First ∆ = 5 , 5 & 3 Second ∆ = 6 , 6 & 4

Ratio of first sides :-

= 6/5 = 1.2

Ratio of second sides :-

= 6/5 = 1.2

Ratio of third sides :-

= 4/3 = 1.33

Since the ratio of all three sides are not same , Hence the two triangles are not similar.

Hence the two triangles are not similar .

When Sandy and Allen's mother decorates the house for a holiday by herself, it takes her 5 hours. When both Sandy and Allen help, the three can finish the job in 2.5 hours. When only Allen helps his mother decorate, it takes the two 3.5 hours. How long would it take Sandy to decorate the house by herself?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mother=5hrs

Sandy and Allen and mother=2.5

Allen with mother=3.5

It would take sandy 5hrs coz she decorates the house herself so if u think logically it took her mother 5 hrs so it would take her.Coz its only her doing it no one else is helping!

James and Bethany Morrison are celebrating their 10th anniversary by having a reception at a local reception hall. They have budgeted $3500 for the reception. If the reception hall charges a $50 cleanup fee plus $34 per person find the greatest number of people that they may invite and still have within their budget.

Answers

Answer: See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the equation:

$34 times the number of people plus the $50 cleaning fee has to be less than or equal to $3500

Or

34p + 50 <= 3500

34p <= 3450

p <= 101.470588....

We can have a part of a person attending the reception so we have to drop the remainder/decimal. Therefore the most amount of people that can attend the party and stay within budget is 101.

find slope of the graph 9x-3y=15

Answers

ExplanationConvert the equation into slope-intercept form.

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

What we have to do is to make the y-term as the subject of equation.

[tex]9x - 3y = 15 \\ 9x - 15 = 3y \\ \frac{9x - 15}{3} = y[/tex]

Simplify

[tex] \frac{9x}{3} - \frac{15}{3} = y \\ 3x - 5 = y \\ y = 3x - 5[/tex]

From y = mx+b, the slope is 3.

Would you be breaking the speed limit in a 40 mi/h zone if you were traveling at 60km/h?

Answers

no you wouldn’t be breaking the speed limit! your absolutely fine!

Since 40 mi/h is greater than 60 km/h. Therefore, 60 km/h is not breaking the speed limit given.

We need to check if would you be breaking the speed limit in a 40 mi/h zone if you were travelling at 60 km/h.

What is the speed?

The formula for speed is speed = distance ÷ time. To work out what the units are for speed, you need to know the units for distance and time. In this example, distance is in metres (m) and time is in seconds (s), so the units will be in metres per second (m/s).

To check whether the speeds are the same, make their units the same.

As we know, 1 mile = 1.60934 km

So, 40 miles = 64.3736

≈64

Then, the speed =64 mile/h

Since 40 mi/h is greater than 60 km/h. Therefore, 60 km/h is not breaking the speed limit given.

Arthur's dog, Shep, had to go on a diet. After three months of dieting, Shep had lost 16% of his weight, which was 24 pounds. How much did Shep weigh before he was put on a diet?

Answers

Answer: 150 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let her initial weight be represented by x.

Since Shep had lost 16% of his weight, which was 24 pounds. Shep weight before he was put on a diet would be:

16% × x = 24

0.16 × x = 24

0.16x = 24

x = 24/0.16

x = 150 pounds

Under her cell phone plan, Lily pays a flat cost of $55.50 per month and $4 per
gigabyte. She wants to keep her bill at $63.10 per month. Write and solve an equation
which can be used to determine x, the number of gigabytes of data Lily can use while
staying within her budget.
equation:
answer x=

Answers

Answer:

Equation : y = 4x + 55.50

x = 1.9 gigabytes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Flat fee per month = $55.50

Cost per gigabyte = $4

Let,

x be the number of gigabytes.

y be the total cost

y = 4x + 55.50

Lily wants to keep her bill $63.10

63.10 = 4x + 55.50

63.10 - 55.50 = 4x

4x = 7.60

Dividing both sides by 4

[tex]\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{7.60}{4}\\x=1.9[/tex]

Hence,

Equation : y = 4x + 55.50

x = 1.9 gigabytes

Answer:

Equation: 4x+55.5=63.1

Answer: x=1.9
