An animal shelter spends $4.50 per day to care for each cat and $8.00 per day to care for each dog. Savannah noticed that the shelter spent $123.00 caring for cats and dogs on Tuesday. Savannah found a record showing that there were a total of 25 cats and dogs on Tuesday. How many cats were at the shelter on Tuesday​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: There were 22 cats and 3 dogs at the shelter on Tuesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "c" the number of cats at the shelter on Tuesday and  "d" the  number of dogs at the shelter on Tuesday.

Set up a System of equations:

[tex]\left \{ {{c+d=25} \atop {4.5c+8d=123}} \right.[/tex]

You can use the Elimination Method to solve the System of equations.

The steps are:

1. Multiply the first equation by -8.

2. Add the equations.

3. Solve for the variable "c".

Then:

[tex]\left \{ {{-8c-8d=-200} \atop {4.5c+8d=123}} \right.\\....................\\-3.5c=-23\\\\c=22[/tex]

4. Substitute the value of "c" into the first original equation.

5. Solve for the variable "d" in order to find its value.

Then, you get:

[tex]22+d=25\\\\d=25-22\\\\d=3[/tex]

Tabitha earns $8.50 per hour at her summer job. She wants to save money to buy a tablet that costs $289 plus 6% sales tax. Tabitha has already saved $75. write and solve an inequality that shows how many hours Tabitha will need to work to have enough money to buy the tablet.

Answers

Answer:

The Inequality that shows number of hours Tabitha will need to work to have enough money to buy the tablet is [tex]75+8.5x\geq 306.34[/tex].

Tabitha needs to work at least 28 hours to buy the tablet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount earn per hour = $8.50

Amount already saved = $75

Cost of tablet = $289

Sales tax = 6%

We to write and solve the inequality number of hours Tabitha will need to work to have enough money to buy the tablet.

Solution:

Let the number of hours she need to work be 'x'.

First we will find the total amount required to buy tablet.

Amount of sales tax = [tex]\frac{6}{100}\times289 = \$17.34[/tex]

Now Total cost to buy tablet will be equal to sum of Cost of tablet and Amount of sales tax.

framing in equation form we get;

Total cost to buy tablet = [tex]289+17.34 = \$306.34[/tex]

Now we can say that;

Amount already saved plus Amount earn per hour multiplied by Amount earn per hour should be greater than or equal to Total cost to buy tablet.

framing in equation form we get;

[tex]75+8.5x\geq 306.34[/tex]

hence The Inequality that shows number of hours Tabitha will need to work to have enough money to buy the tablet is [tex]75+8.5x\geq 306.34[/tex].

On solving the above Inequality we get;

First we will subtract both side by 75 we get;

[tex]75+8.5x-75\geq 306.34-75\\\\8.5x\geq 231.34[/tex]

Dividing both side by 8.5 we get;

[tex]\frac{8.5x}{8.5}\geq \frac{231.34}{8.5}\\\\x\geq 27.21[/tex]

Hence Tabitha needs to work at least 28 hours to buy the tablet.

Step-by-step explanation:

step :-

mid point formula:-

Let [tex](x_{1} ,y_{1} ) and (x_{2} ,y_{2} )[/tex] be any two end points

Mid point of two given points are

[tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2} , \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2} )[/tex]

let (x,y ) be the another end point

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it seems to me that if he wants the same rate of acceleration as the first trip, then he would need the same amount of soil as the first trip.

Therefore, he should reduce the amount of soil by one half and apply the same force. <====

Because the first time it was half full.....and since the second trip was all the way full, if he reduced it by one half, it would contain the same amount as the first trip....so he can then get the same rate of acceleration.

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, an object with a larger mass requires more force to accelerate it at a certain rate than an object with less mass. This means that an object with a larger mass requires more force to accelerate.

To move the wheelbarrow at the same rate of acceleration for the second trip, the amount of soil must be the same as in the first trip. Since the gardener first filled only one-half of the wheelbarrow with soil, the gardener must reduce the amount of soil by one-half and apply the same amount of force.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]5 \sqrt{5} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the distance between (-8,-4) and (2,-9).

We use the distance formula:

[tex]d = \sqrt{ {(x_2-x_1)^2} +(y_2-y_1)^2 } [/tex]

We substitute the coordinates to get:

[tex]d = \sqrt{ {(2- - 8)^2} +( - 9 - - 4)^2 } [/tex]

We simplify to obtain:

[tex]d = \sqrt{ {(2 + 8)^2}+( - 9 + 4)^2 } [/tex]

Add the numbers within the parenthesis to get:

[tex]d = \sqrt{ {(10)^2}+( -5)^2 } [/tex]

Find the squares of the numbers under the radical

[tex]d = \sqrt{ {100}+25} [/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{125} = 5 \sqrt{5} [/tex]

The rectangle below has an area of 12y^2+21y^5.
The width of the rectangle is equal to the greatest common monomial factor 12y^2 and 21y^5
What is the length and width of the rectangle?
Width= ?
Length=?

Answers

Answer:

The  length of the rectangle is[tex](4+7y^3)[/tex] and its  width is[tex]3y^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Area of the rectangle =[tex]12y^2+21y^5[/tex].

Width is the greatest common factor of  [tex]12y^2[/tex] and[tex]21y^5[/tex]

To Find:

The length and width of the rectangle = ?

Solution:

Step 1: Finding the greatest common factor of [tex]12y^2[/tex]and[tex]21y^5[/tex]

[tex]12 y^2[/tex]= 2 x 3 x 3 x y x y

[tex]21y^5[/tex] = 3 x 7 x y x y x y x y x y

Thus the greatest common factor is [tex]3y^2[/tex] which is the width

Step 2: Finding the length and width

The area of the rectangle  = length x breath

width x length=  [tex]12y^2+21y^5.[/tex]

Taking[tex]3y^2[/tex] commonly from each term, we get

width x length= [tex](3y^2)(4 + 7y^3)[/tex]

[tex]5[/tex]

First Method:

Substitute the given values in for [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex].Solve.

This isn't the only method, but it seems the least likely to result in an incorrect answer.

If [tex]x=1[/tex] and [tex]y=-2[/tex], find the solution to:

[tex]3xy+7x^2-3x^2y+3y^2x-2x^2-2xy+4x^2y-2y^2x[/tex]

Substitute [tex]1[/tex] for [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]-2[/tex] for [tex]y[/tex].

[tex]3xy+7x^2-3x^2y+3y^2x-2x^2-2xy+4x^2y-2y^2x\\3(1)(-2)+7(1)^2-3(1)^2(-2)+3(-2)^2(1)-2(1)^2-2(1)(-2)+4(1)^2(-2)-2(-2)^2(1)[/tex]

Wow. That's a lot. Let's try simplifying things. I'd start by multiplying all our [tex]1[/tex]'s because any number multiplied by [tex]1[/tex] is that very same number, so we can easily reduce the length of our equation without much worry for messing up our math in the process.

[tex]3(-2)+7-3(-2)+3(-2)^2-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(-2)^2[/tex]

It still looks like torture trying to figure out this equation, but let's take it in chunks instead of all at once.

[tex]3(-2)+7-3(-2)+3(-2)^2-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(-2)^2[/tex]

First, I'm going to deal with all the exponents, and turn them into integers.

[tex]3(-2)+7-3(-2)+3(4)-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(4)[/tex]

Notice that things are starting to look less complicated. We are taking our math in chunks. This will make it less likely for us to mess up, although it is more time consuming.Now, let's do multiplication. Any number within a parentheses is going to be multiplied by the number next to it. Remember that this only applies when there is no sign between them. I'm going to go one at a time.

[tex]3(-2)+7-3(-2)+3(4)-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(4)\\-6+7-3(-2)+3(4)-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(4)\\-6+7+6+3(4)-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(4)\\-6+7+6+12-2-2(-2)+4(-2)-2(4)\\-6+7+6+12-2+4+4(-2)-2(4)\\-6+7+6+12-2+4-8-2(4)\\-6+7+6+12-2+4-8-8\\[/tex]

This is a lot of steps, but hopefully it doesn't looks as bad after seeing that I just did multiplication over and over. I'll go over another method after this that may make things less complicated.Now, we add these together. It doesn't matter what order you do this in.

[tex]-6+7+6+12-2+4-8-8\\7+4+6+12-6-2-8-8\\11+18-8-16\\29-24\\5[/tex]

Our final answer is [tex]5[/tex].

Here's another method:

If [tex]x=1[/tex] and [tex]y=-2[/tex], find the solution to:

[tex]3xy+7x^2-3x^2y+3y^2x-2x^2-2xy+4x^2y-2y^2x[/tex]

Because we know that any number multiplied by [tex]1[/tex] will be that same number, let's just substitute in [tex]x[/tex] for now.

[tex]3xy+7x^2-3x^2y+3y^2x-2x^2-2xy+4x^2y-2y^2x\\3(1)y+7(1)^2-3(1)^2y+3y^2(1)-2(1)^2-2(1)y+4(1)^2y-2y^2(1)\\[/tex]

Now, just like before, we can multiply [tex]1[/tex] without doing complicated math. Just basically get rid of it even when it's squared because [tex]1^2=1*1=1[/tex].

[tex]3(1)y+7(1)^2-3(1)^2y+3y^2(1)-2(1)^2-2(1)y+4(1)^2y-2y^2(1)\\3y+7-3y+3y^2-2-2y+4y-2y^2\\3y^2-2y^2+3y-3y-2y+4y+5\\y^2+2y+5[/tex]

Looks a LOT less complicated. Substitute [tex]-2[/tex] in for [tex]y[/tex] and get your final answer.

[tex]y^2+2y+5\\(-2)^2+2(-2)+5\\4-4+5\\5[/tex]

a supermarket sells 2 kg and 4 kg of sugar a shipment of 1100 bags of sugar has a total mass of 2900 kg. How many 2 kg bags and 4 kg bags are in the shipment​

Answers

Final answer:

To find the number of 2 kg and 4 kg sugar bags in the shipment, we use a system of equations. By setting x as the number of 2 kg bags and y as the number of 4 kg bags, we determine that there are 750 bags of 2 kg sugar and 350 bags of 4 kg sugar.

Explanation:

To solve the problem of determining how many 2 kg bags and 4 kg bags of sugar are in the shipment of 1100 bags with a total mass of 2900 kg, we need to set up a system of equations and solve for the variables representing the quantities of each type of bag. Let's denote x as the number of 2 kg bags and y as the number of 4 kg bags.

The first equation represents the total number of bags:
x + y = 1100.

The second equation represents the total weight of the bags:
2x + 4y = 2900.

We can solve these equations using substitution or elimination methods. For simplicity, let's multiply the first equation by 2 and subtract it from the second equation:

2(x + y) = 2(1100) --> 2x + 2y = 2200(2x + 4y) - (2x + 2y) = 2900 - 22002y = 700y = 350

Now that we know y, we can substitute it back into the first equation to find x:

x + 350 = 1100x = 750

Therefore, there are 750 bags of 2 kg sugar and 350 bags of 4 kg sugar in the shipment.

Final answer:

When a seesaw is level, the height of both ends above the ground is the average of the heights when one end is lifted. In this case, both ends are 15 inches above the ground when the seesaw is level.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the height of the ends of a seesaw when it is in a level or balanced position. A seesaw balances when it is level, and both ends are at the same height. Considering the given details, one end is 9 inches and the other is 21 inches above ground, when they switch positions due to the seesaw's pendulum-like movement. But when the seesaw is level, both ends are at the same height. Therefore, the height of both ends of the seesaw when it is level is the average of 9 inches and 21 inches. You calculate this average by adding the two given distances and dividing by 2. So:

((9 inches + 21 inches) / 2) = 15 inches

So, when the seesaw is level, both ends are 15 inches above the ground.

You take a pan of brownies out of the oven and set them on the counter in a room that is 70 degrees F, If the brownies start at 400 degrees F, approximately how long will it be before they are cool enough to eat at 160 degrees F? Use Newton's Law of Cooling with k = 0.035.

Answers

Answer:

i would say wait abought 50 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

i dont know whow to explain i might be wrong but its some whaere around 50 mins irl

Using Newton's Law of Cooling with a cooling constant of 0.035, it will take approximately 42.53 minutes for the brownies to cool from 400 degrees F to 160 degrees F.

To estimate the time it would take for brownies to cool from 400 degrees F to 160 degrees F using Newton's Law of Cooling, we can use the equation [tex]T(t) = T_s + (T_0 - T_s)e^{(-kt)[/tex], where T(t) is the temperature of the object at time t, T_s is the surrounding temperature, T_0 is the initial temperature of the object, and k is the cooling constant (0.035 in this case).

First, set T(t) = 160 degrees F (the desired temperature), T_s = 70 degrees F (room temperature), and T_0 = 400 degrees F (initial temperature of brownies). Plug in the values into the equation: 160 = 70 + (400 - 70)e^(-0.035t).

Simplify and solve for t. Subtract 70 from both sides: 90 = 330e^(-0.035t). Divide both sides by 330: 90/330 = e^(-0.035t), which simplifies to 0.2727 ≈ e^(-0.035t).

Take the natural logarithm of both sides to solve for t: ln(0.2727) = -0.035t. Solving for t gives t ≈ -ln(0.2727)/0.035, which calculates to approximately t ≈ 42.53 minutes.

Hence, the brownies should cool to 160 degrees F in about 42.53 minutes.

An 8-oz tub of yogurt causes two dollars and a 32 ounce tube cost is six dollars what fraction of the cost of the large tube is the small tub?

Answers

The required fraction is [tex]\bold{\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Solution:

Given:

Cost of 32 ounces tub = $6

Cost of 8 ounces tub = $2

To find:

what fraction of the cost of the large tube is the small tub.

From the given, here we can understand that the large tub is the 32 ounces tub and the smaller one is the 8 ounces tub.

Let k be the required fraction.

Therefore, [tex]\bold{k\times6=2}[/tex]

On solving we get,

[tex]\bold{\Rightarrow k=\frac{2}{6}\rightarrow k=\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

A man and his wife go shopping. They begin with $200 total. First, they stop for lunch, spending $15.00. Then, they buy three items at $20.00 each. Later, the wife spends twice what her husband spends. They return home with $20.00 cash. How much did the wife spend?

Answers

Amount spent by the wife is $70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

the total amount  = $200

Amount spent on Lunch = $15.00

They buy three items at $20.00 each

The wife spends twice what her husband spends

They return home with $20.00 cash.

To Find:

Amount spent by the wife  = ?

Solution:

Initially after spending $15.00 on lunch they balance cash with them will be

200 - 15.00 = $185

Then they are buy 3 items each of which costs $20.00

So the balance after buying the 3 items will be

= 200 - 3(20)

= 185- 60.00

= $125

Now the wife is spending twice what her husband spends

so let the amount spent be the husband be x then the amount spent by the wife will be 2x.

Now  after spending 2x+x amount they are  left with $20.00

that is

125 -2x+x  = 20

125 -3x = 20

125 -20 = 3x

105 = 3x

[tex]x = \frac{105}{3}[/tex]

x = 35

So the wife will be spending 2(35) = $70

You are consulting for a trucking company that does a large amount ofbusiness shipping packages between New York and Boston. The volume ishigh enough that they have to send a number of trucks each day betweenthe two locations. Trucks have a fixed limit w on the maximum amountof weight they are allowed to carry. Boxes arrive at the New York stationone by one, and each package i has a weight wi. The trucking stationis quite small, so at most one truck can be at the station at any time.Company policy requires that boxes are shipped in the order they arrive;otherwise, a customer might get upset upon seeing a box that arrivedafter his make it to Boston faster. At the moment, the company is usinga simple greedy algorithm for packing: they pack boxes in the order theyarrive, and whenever the next box does not fit, they, send the truck on itsway.But they wonder if they might be using too many trucks, and theywant your opinion on whether the situation can be improved. Here ishow they are thinking. Maybe one could decrease the number of trucksneeded by sometimes sending off a truck that was less full, and in thisway allow the next few trucks to be better packed.Prove that, for a given set of boxes with specified weights, the greedyalgorithm currently in use actually minimizes the number of trucks thatare needed. Your proof should follow the type of analysis we used forthe Interval Scheduling Problem: it should establish the optimality of thisgreedy packing algorithm by identifying a measure under which it "staysahead" of all other solutions. when a company in the United States employs people in India to answer there customer service calls, this is an example of ___?(a.) traditional careers(b.) outsourcing(c.) entrepreneurship (d.) non-traditional careers Whorf's linguistic determinism hypothesis emphasizes thata. infancy is a critical period for language development. b. our linguistic proficiencies influence our social status. c. words shape the way people think. d. morphemes and phonemes build grammar and language. e. all languages share a similar grammar.
