Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 dogs and 5 cats were adopted out on Christmas eve.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of dogs adopted out on Christmas eve be x and the number of cats be y.

From the question,

On Christmas Eve, the animal adopted out 8 total animals

That is, x + y = 8 ...... (1)

and brought in $400 in total adoption fees.

Also from the question,

Each dog adoption fee was $75 and each cat adoption fee was $35.

∴ On Christmas Eve,

75x + 35y = 400 ...... (2)

Now, to determine how many dogs and how many cats were adopted out on Christmas Eve, we will solve the two equations simultaneously.

From equation (1)

x + y = 8

Make x the subject of the relation.

∴ x = 8 - y ...... (3)

Substitute the value of x into equation (2)

75(8 - y) + 35y = 400

600 - 75y + 35y = 400

600 -40y = 400

600 - 400 = 40y

200 = 40y

∴ 40y = 200

y = 200/40

y = 5

Substitute the value of y into equation (3)

x = 8 - y

x = 8 - 5

x = 3

∴ x = 3 and y = 5

Hence, 3 dogs and 5 cats were adopted out on Christmas eve.

Step-by-step explanation:

A vertical asymptote represents a value at which a rational function is undefined, so that value is not in the domain of the function. A reciprocal function cannot have values in its domain that cause the denominator to equal zero. In general, to find the domain of a rational function, we need to determine which inputs would cause division by zero.

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

I think this means to find the mid-point(?) of the line which by doing that you take both x-values and you add them and then divide by two, and then you take both y-values and add them and then divide by two. So you have: (1+-4)=-3, (-3/2)=-1.5

-1.5=x

(2+-2)=0, (0/2)=0

0=y

(-1.5, 0)

A prop for a school play is a sphere that will be hung from the ceiling. The surface area of the sphere is 5 024 cm'. If the surface area of the sphere can be found by using the formula SA = 4πr^2. where r is the radius, what is the radius of the sphere, to the nearest cm?

Answers

Answer:

The radius of the sphere, to the nearest cm:

[tex]r\approx 20[/tex] cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a sphere is given by the formula

A = 4πr²

where r is the radius of the sphere.

Given

The surface area of sphere A = 5024 cm²

The radius of the sphere can be determined such as

[tex]A\:=\:4\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]r\:=\:\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi }}[/tex]

Plug in Surface Area of sphere =  5024, π = 3.14 in the formula

[tex]\:r\:=\:\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{5024}{3.14}}\:\:[/tex]

[tex]r\approx 20[/tex] cm

Therefore, the radius of the sphere, to the nearest cm:

[tex]r\approx 20[/tex] cm

Answer:

  f(x) = 3x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-values change by 1 from the first line to the second.

The y-values change by -13-(-16) = 3 from the first line to the second.

Then the "rate of change" is ∆y/∆x = 3/1 = 3. This will be the coefficient of x in the equation. The last choice is appropriate:

Answers

Answer:

70,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The correct answer is 73,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, we know that the number 7 or 70,000 represents the ten-thousands in this number. Therefore, the number 2 or 2,000 represents the thousands place, which is what we are trying to round.

In order to do so, we have to look at the number behind it, which, in this case, is 6.

Rule: If the number is 4 or less, the number before it stays the same. If the number is 5 or more, the number before it goes up 1.

Since 6 is larger than 5, the 2 will become a 3, while the other numbers become 0s.

Therefore, the correct answer is 73,000.

The volume of a rectangular prism = V = 140 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length l = 4 mWidth w = 5 mHeight h = 7 m

To Determine:

The volume of rectangular prism = V

Using the formula to determine the volume of the prism

V = l × w × h

V = 4 × 5 × 7

V = 140 m³

Therefore, the volume of a rectangular prism = V = 140 m³
