Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the common ratio between cats and dogs is 4:5. We want to know cat and dogs in the ratio X:20. Thus, we can set up the equation as 4/5=X/50. Cross multiplication gets us 80=5X Solving for we get that 80/5 =X....16 =X Now, we know that the number of cats there are is 16

Plzzz help What is the distance between P(-3, -2) and Q(5, -2)?

Yuri [45]

Well first, you have to know the distance formula. You plug the coordinates into it and you get the answer.

$\sqrt(-2 + 3) ^{2} + (-2 - 5) ^{2}$

√1² + -7² = d

d = 7.1
