There are 36 dogs in the shelter.

<h3>How to find the total number of dogs in the shelter?</h3>

The ratio of dogs to cats in the shelter is given as 9:15.

The total number of dogs and cats is given as 96.

Let the constant of proportionality be x.

The total number of dogs is 9x and the total number of cats is 15x.

This means that:

9x + 15x = 96

24x = 96

x = 4.

The total number of dogs in the shelter = 9 × 4

= 36

Therefore, we have found that there are 36 dogs in the shelter.

How much would $500 invested at 6% interest compounded monthly be worth after 5 years? round your answer to the nearest cent.
Lady bird [3.3K]
Use this formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^nt, where A is the amount after interest (what you are solving for), P is the amount you invested originally, r is the rate at which it was invested in decimal form, n is the number of times the compounding occurs each year, t is the time in years it is invested. It would look like this: A = 500(1 + [.06/12])^12*5.  Do inside the parenthesis first to get 1 + .005 = 1.005.  Now raise that to the 60th power (12 times 5 is 60) to get 1.34558. Now multiply that by the 500 out front to get a total amount of $674.43
