Answer:
There were 16 birds at the shelter on Wednesday.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of cats and birds on Wednesday = 34
let the number of birds on Wednesday = b
Then number of cats = (34 -b)
The rate of taking care of each bird in shelter = $3
The rate of taking care of each cat in shelter = $7
Total amount spent by shelter on Wednesday = $174
So, according to the question
b x ($3) + (34 -b) ($7) = $ 174
or, 3b + 238 - 7b = 174
or, 4b = 64
⇒ b = 64/4 = 16
Hence, the number of birds in shelter on Wednesday = b = 16
and Number of cats = 34 - 16 = 18
<span>3x + 8x + 4x = 6x + 63
15x = 6x + 63
9x = 63
x = 7
so
5x+ 23 =5(7) + 23 = 35+23 = 58</span>
First, you have to find half of 30. To find "half" means that you have to divide by 2. 30 divided by 2 is 15, because 15 + 15 = 30.
30 + 15 = 45
Salo and Nan used 45 total tiles.
Finally, to find out if they have enough tiles you have to divide 36 and 24 by 4. This is because that will tell you how many 4 inch tiles need to be used. So, 36/4 is 9, and 24/4 is 6.
9 tiles + 6 tiles = 15 tiles
Yes, they will have enough tiles to cover the table.
Let the original profits be $x. 5% increase in profits will give us:
105/100×x=$1.05x
3% reduction in new profits ill give us the latest amount to be:
97/100×1.05x
=$1.0185x
comparing our new profits to our original amount of $x we shall have new percentage increase to be:
(1.0185x-x)/x×100
=1.85%
Thus our final increase 1.85%
