Answer: The required ratio is,

$2:5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of cats = 8,

Number of dogs = 20,

Thus, the ratio of cats and dogs = $\frac{\text{number of cats}}{\text{number of dogs}}$

$=\frac{8}{20}$

LCM(8, 20) = 4

$=\frac{8\div 4}{20\div 4}$

$=\frac{2}{5}$

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

254 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A=pi*r^2

A=pi*(d/2)^2

A=3.14*(18/2)^2

A=3.14*(9)^2

A=3.14*81

A=254.34 in^2

So, rounded no the nearest whole, the answer is 254 in^2

Which is option 2 or B

Find (f/g) (x) for the functions provided: ƒ(x) = x3 − 27, g(x) = 3x − 9

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

$(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{1}{3}(x^2+3x+9)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that

$f(x)=x^3-27,g(x)=3x-9$

We can use the formula for difference of cubes to simplify the function f(x)

difference of cubes - $a^3-b^3=(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)$

$f(x)=x^3-27\\\\=x^3-3^3\\\\=(x-3)(x^2+3x+9)$

And g(x) can be written as

$g(x)=3x-9\\=3(x-3)$

Thus, we have

$(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{(x-3)(x^2+3x+9)}{3(x-3}$

On cancelling the common factors, we get

$(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{1}{3}(x^2+3x+9)$

Answer:

$x^6+3x^3+3+\dfrac{1}{x^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pascal triangle to find the coefficients of the expasion of the cube. It holds that

$(x^2 + \dfrac{1}{x})^3=(x^2)^3+3(x^2)^2\dfrac{1}{x}+3x^2(\dfrac{1}{x})^2+(\dfrac{1}{x})^3\\\\=x^6+3x^4\dfrac{1}{x}+3x^2\dfrac{1}{x^2}+\dfrac{1}{x^3}\\\\=x^6+3x^3+3+\dfrac{1}{x^3}$

The complementary event is that a customer does not enter the store within one minute of closing, and the probability is 75%.

The complement is found by subtracting from 100%; 100-25 = 75%.
