Answer:

There are 36 dogs in the shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

(Draw a model)

(3 boxes for dogs and 7 boxes for cats)

10 units = 120

1 unit = 120÷10

= 12

3 units = 12×3

= 36

(I hope you understand the question. A gentle reminder, always draw the model according to the ratio. From there you will understand.)

The graph below shows the distance Sean rode his bike. Does this represent a proportional relationship?
Black_prince [1.1K]

We can see that for every 1 hour he increases 10 miles in his distance, so we can say it's constant, he started at 0 and increased 10 miles per hour.

A square mosaic is made of small glass squares. If there are 256 small squares in the mosaic how many are along an edge?
Degger [83]
To do this, you got to square 256.

The square root of 256 is 16.

Therefore, there are 16 small squares on each edge of the mosaic.

Kinda proof:

o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O

25 squares. Square root is 5. 5 along each edge. My work shares same concept.

Extremely unnecessary proof:

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

There are 256 squares, and you can count 16 on each edge. this shows 16 times 16, or 16 squared, which is 256.
