Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

cats = 2 dogs = 3

8 is to 2 as x is to 3

8/2 = x /3 where x = # of dogs

x = 8/2 * 3 = 12 dogs

12, for every 2 cats there are three dogs. 8/2 is four. you multiply 3 times 4 to get 12

5 ports Use absolute value to express the distance between -12 and -15 on the number line. |-12 - (-15) = -27

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$Distance = 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-12 and -15

Required

Solve the difference

The question you posted included the solution. However, the solution is incorrect;

The absolute difference is represented as:

$Difference = \vert a - b \vert$

In this case:

$a = -12$

$b = -15$

So, the distance is calculated as:

$Distance = |-12 - (-15)|$

Open bracket

$Distance = |-12 +15|$

$Distance = |3|$

$Distance = 3$

Express p as the subject of the formula<br>q= p² - r ÷ t

Rudik [331]

Answer:

p = $\sqrt{q +\frac{r}{t} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

q= $p^{2}$ - r÷ t using BODMAS

q = $p^{2}$ - (r/t)

q + r/t = $p^{2}$

p= $\sqrt{q+\frac{r}{t} }$

Help Me!!

check the picture below.

so we know Bethany's payrate, her slope is 11.75, namely $11.75/hr, for for every hour, she makes 11.75 bucks.

now, let's use those red-circled points, to get Grant's slope, and therefore his payrate,

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{38.70})\qquad 
(\stackrel{x_2}{7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{90.30})
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{90.30-38.70}{7-3}\implies \cfrac{51.6}{4}\implies 12.9$

low and behold, Grant makes 12.90 or 12.9 bucks every hour.

well, Bethany does 11.75 hmmm what's their difference?

12.90 - 11.75

1.15

so 12.90 is greater than 11.75 by 1.15, meaning, Grant makes 1.15 bucks more every hour than Bethany.

to find this you would take each answer and multiple it by 6.45% so A=1.29 , B=1.6125,C=0.645,D=1.161 so the correct answer is B.
