Using proportions, it is found that it will take him 22.5 hours to walk the 45 dogs.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

He walks 3 dogs in 1 hour and 30 minutes, we means that the time in hours it takes for him to walk a dog is:

t = 1.5/3 = 0.5 hours.

Hence the time it will take him to walk 45 dogs is given by:

45 x 0.5 = 22.5 hours.

Find the distance between the points (0,-2) and (-8,-8)
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Distance between the points = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points:

(0,-2) and (-8,-8)

To find the distance between the two points.

Solution:

Applying distance formula to find the distance between the points.

For points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) the distance is given as:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Plugging in the given points in the formula.

d=\sqrt{(-8-0)^2+(-8-(-2))^2}

d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-8+2))^2}

d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-6)^2}

d=\sqrt{64+36}

d=\sqrt{100}

d=\pm10

Since distance is always positive. So d=10 units.
