An animal shelter houses dogs​, cats​, and ferrets. There are 144 animals at the shelter. Of the​ animals, one fourth are dogs. Eight ninths of the remaining animals are cats. How many of the animals are ferrets​?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 1/4 = 3/4 (remaining animals which are cats and ferrets)

1 - 8/9 = 1/9 (means 1/9 of the remaining animals are ferrets)

1/9 x 3/4 = 1/12 (means 1/12 of the animals are ferrets)

1/12 x 144 = 12 ferrets

A focus group is made up 12 males and 4 females. Half of the males have college degrees. A member is selected at random from the geoup. What is the probability that the member is a male with a college degree?

Answers

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We first have to find the probability that the person selected is a male and then multiply that by the probability that the male has a college degree.

There are 12 males and 4 females. There are 16 people in total. The probability of selecting a male is:

12/16 = 3/4

Half of the males have a college degree. Therefore, 6 males have a college degree. The probability that a selected male has a college degree is:

6/12 = 1/2

Therefore, the probability that a male is selected and that the male has a college degree is:

3/4 * 1/2 = 3/8

-6(4 + 5v) - 3 = -57 solve for V

Answers

-6(4 + 5v) - 3 = -57

Use distributive properties

-24 -30V -3 = -57

Combine like terms

-27 -30v = -57

Add 27 to both sides

-30v = -30

Divide both sides by -30

V=1

Answer:

v = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(4 + 5v) - 3 = -57

Add 3 to each side

-6(4 + 5v) - 3+3 = -57+3

-6(4 + 5v)  = -54  

Divide by -6 on each side

-6(4 + 5v)  / -6 = -54/-6

4+5v = 9

Subtract 4 from each side

4+5v-4 = 9-4

5v = 5

Divide each side by 5

5v/5 = 5/5

v =1

Find the greatest common factor of 26 and 14.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor is a number that can evenly divide into another number.

Let’s list all the factors of both numbers.

26: 1, 2, 13, 26

14: 1,2, 7, 14

Now find the GCF, or greatest common factor. The biggest number that is a factor of both 26 and 14 is 2.

Therefore, the GCF of 26 and 14 is 2.

Debbie buys a tree for the holidays. She would like to determine the amount of space it will take up in her living room. The tree is cone shaped and has a radius of 2 feet. Find the volume of the tree if it is in the shape of a cone and its height is two times its radius. The radius of a cone whose height is is equal to two times its radius is given as: r equal to cube root of (3V/4π)

Answers

Answer:

Volume of Cone =

[tex]= \frac{1}{3}\pi (2)^2 (4)\\\\=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(4)(4)\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times 16 \\\\=\frac{1}{3}\times50.24\\\\=16.746\\\\\approx16.75 \texttt {ft} ^3[/tex]

Thus, Volume = 16.75 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone is given by the formula  

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h[/tex]

Where r is the radius and

h is the height

Given radius r = 2 and

height is 2 times that.

So height is 2*2 = 4

Plugging these into the formula we get:

Volume of Cone =

[tex]= \frac{1}{3}\pi (2)^2 (4)\\\\=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(4)(4)\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times 16 \\\\=\frac{1}{3}\times50.24\\\\=16.746\\\\\approx16.75 \texttt {ft} ^3[/tex]

Thus, Volume = 16.75 cubic feet

What is the Total Surface Area?

Total surface area refers to the area including the base(s) and the curved part. It is the total area covered by the surface of the object. If the shape has a curved surface and base, then the total area will be the sum of the two areas.

Given here; The surface area of the lakes and we are required to find The total surface area of all the lakes.

Thus we have TSA= (2.57 + 6.01+5.80+1.91+8.21)×10¹⁰

2 × 5/36 = 1/3 × X ÷ 2 × 2

help factor left side please!!
y’all i didn’t sleep at all last night and i cannot remember how to factor the first half of the equation help me out asap please guys

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)

Two numbers that work are -6 and +1

-6 x +1 = -6

-6 + -1 = -5

2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.

3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0

I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.

3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'

3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0

4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.

(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0

5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.

3x + 1 = 0              x-2 = 0

3x = -1                   x = 2

x = -1/3

6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by separating (not factoring) -5x.  For example, we might get {-2x, - 3x} (note how these combine to produce -5x).  Might have to try several combinations to find the right one.

Then 3x^2 -5x -2=0 could possibly be x(3x - 2) - (3x - 2), or

                                                                x(3x - 2) - 1(3x - 2).

Notice how the factor (3x - 2) shows up twice.  If we factor out (3x - 2) we are left with (x - 1).  We check these results by multiplying (3x - 2) and (x - 1) together, so we can be sure that the result is the original 3x^2 -5x -2=0.

(3x - 2)(x - 1) = 3x^2 - 3x - 2x + 1 results in 3x^2 - 5x + 2.  Unfortunately, the sign of that 2 is incorrect; we'd hoped for -2, not +2.

To check this further, I used synthetic division with 1 as divisor; the remainder is -4, which tells us that (x - 1) is not a factor of 3x^2 -5x -2=0.

6x – 5 = 13 – 3х solve

Answers

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

6x−5=13−3x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6x−5=13−3x

6x+−5=13+−3x

6x−5=−3x+13

Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.

6x−5+3x=−3x+13+3x

9x−5=13

Step 3: Add 5 to both sides.

9x−5+5=13+5

9x=18

Step 4: Divide both sides by 9.

[tex]\frac{9x}{9}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{18}{9}[/tex]

x = 2

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by adding 3x to 6x, this eliminates the variables on the right side of the equation and leave you with 9x-5=13. From here, add five to both sides of the equation, which cancels out on the left side and leads you to have 18 on the right side. Remember that you want to have a lone variable, so you take the current equation of 9x=18 and divide both sides by 9, which cancels out on the left side and leaves the right side as 2. Therefore, x=2.

Ace Electronics, Hi-Fi Stereo, and CD World buy a total of 195 DVD players from the same distributor each month. Because CD World buys 35 more units than the other two stores combined, CD World's cost is only $160 per unit. The players cost Hi-Fi $165 each and Ace $170 each. How many players does each retailer buy each month if the distributor receives $31,750 each month from the sale of the players to the three stores?

Answers

Answer:

Ace Electronics buys 30, Hi-Fi Stereo buys 50, and CD World buys 115

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of items Ace Electronics buys

Let y represent the number of items Hi-Fi Stereo buys

Let z represent the number of items CD World buys

Since Ace Electronics, Hi-Fi Stereo, and CD World buy a total of 195 DVD players:

x + y + z = 195   (1)

Since CD World buys 35 more units than the other two stores combined:

z = x + y + 35   (2)

If you substitute z in equation 1 from equation 2:

x + y + (x + y + 35) = 195

2(x + y) = 195- 35

x + y = 80   (3)

Since z = x + y + 35:

z = 80 + 35

z = 115

Since CD World's cost is $160 per unit, Hi-Fi 's cost is $165 per unit and Ace Electronics's cost is $170 per unit and the total payment received is $31,750

170x + 165y + 160z = 31750   (Substitute x from equation 3 and z as 115)

170(80-y) + 165y + 160(115) = 31750

13600 - 170y  + 165y + 18400 = 31750

32000 - 5y = 31750

5y = 250

y = 50

Since x + y = 80:

x + 50 = 80

x = 30
