An animal shelter has a total of 5 * 47 animals comprised of cats, dogs, and rabbits. If the number of rabbits is 5 less than on
e half the number of cats, and there are 20 more cats than dogs, how many dogs are at the shelter?
1 answer:
The number of dogs in the animal shelter which comprise of cats, dogs, and rabbits is 84 dogs.
<h3>Equation</h3>
Total animals = 5 × 47
= 235
- Number of rabbits = 1/2(d + 20) - 5
- Number of cats = d + 20
- Number of dogs = d
235 = d + (d + 20) + 1/2(d + 20) - 5
235 = d + d + 20 + 1/2d + 10 - 5
235 = 2 1/2d + 25
235 - 25 = 2 1/2d
210 = 2 1/2d
d = 210 ÷ 2 1/2
d = 210 ÷ 5/2
= 210 × 2/5
= 420/5
d = 84 dogs

Two angles are complementary when they add up to 90 degrees<span>
</span><span>smaller angle = x
</span><span>larger angle = 9x
</span>
x + 9x = 90
10x = 90
x = 90/10
x = 9° ← smaller angle
larger angle = 9x = 9 * 9 = 81°
90/3=30 30*(15)=450 450 is your answer.
X=55 Explanation: the square is a right angle symbol and that means the angle is 90 degrees so just subtract 35 from the 90 to get x
Answer:
- We need to distribute the values
- Hence [-4 0: 0 - 2 ] +[0 -3: 5 -4] X + [ 0 -3: 5 -4 ] = [19 -27 : 10 -24]
