In Sam’s pet corner, there are puppies and parrots, the total of 15 heads and 50 feet. How many parrots and how many puppies?

1 answer:

3 0

Puppies = 4 feet
Parrots = 2 feet

15 heads = 15 animals

Assumed all Parrots,
15 x 2 = 30 feet

50 - 30 = 20
There are 20 extra feet which must belong to puppies' extra 2 feet each
20 ÷ 2 = 10

There are 10 puppies
15 - 10 = 5
There are 5 parrots

Check:
10 x 4 + 5 x 2 = 50 feet (Correct)

Will mark BRAINLIST Find the perimeter of the following shape, rounded to the nearest tenth: coordinate plane with quadrilateral

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

11.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the length of one of the boxes.

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\1^2+1^2=c^2\\1+1=c^2\\2 = c^2\\\\\sqrt{2} = c\\ c = 1.414...$

Let's simplify c down to 1.41.

Now, there are 8 of these little boxes for the perimeter, let's multiply.

$1.41\cdot8=11.28$

That can be simplified to the nearest tenth - 11.3

Hope this helped!

What is 26/48 simplest form

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

13/14

The GCF between 26 and 48 is 2. So divide 26/2=12 and 48/2=13 13/14. And after that you can not simplify anymore so 13/14 is 26/48 in it's simplest form.

Hope it helps!
