Bob raises Guinea Pigs and Chinchillas on his beachfront oasis. There are a total of 60,005 animals at the oasis. The number of

Chinchillas is 5 more than 2 times the number of guinea pigs. How many of each animals are there? Let g = the number of guinea pigs and let c = the number of chinchillas. Write a system of equations to represent the situation and use substitution to solve for the amount of each animal.

Let named variables as you said g- guinea pigs and c- chinchillas
System of equation is:

First is:   c+ g = 60,005 
Second is:   c= 2g+5

When we replace second in first we get:

2g+5+g = 60,005 => 3g+5= 60,005 => 3g= 60,000

g=60.000/3 = 20,000 => g=20,000

When this result we replace in the second equation we get

c= 2 * 20,000 +5= 40,000+5 = 40,005

c= 40,005

Good luck!!!!

7. Identify a horizontal or vertical stretch or compression of the function f(x)=√x by observing the equation of the function g(
Effectus [21]

It is a vertical stretch.

<h3>What is functions?</h3>

A function in mathematics from a set X to a set Y allocates exactly one element of Y to each element of X. The sets X and Y are collectively referred to as the function's domain and codomain, respectively. Initially, functions represented the idealized relationship between two changing quantities.

Given

To solve this problem you must apply the procedure shown below:

1. You have the following parent function given in the problem above:

f(x) = √x

2. And you have the function g(x) = √3x

3. By definition, if you have the function y = ax and |a| > 1 it is a vertical stretch.

4. Therefore, you have that:

|a| = √3

√3 > 1

Therefore the answer is: It is a vertical stretch.

What is the determinant of <br><br>15<br><br>18<br><br>154
IgorC [24]

Answer:

The determinant is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to calculate the determinant of the given matrix.

1. Subtract column 3 multiplied by 3 from column 1 (C1=C1−(3)C3):

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-25&-23&9\\0&3&1\\-5&5&3\end{array}\right]

2. Subtract column 3 multiplied by 3 from column 2 (C2=C2−(3)C3):

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-25&-23&9\\0&0&1\\-5&-4&3\end{array}\right]

3. Expand along the row 2: (See attached picture).

We get that the answer is 15. The determinant is 15.
