Use f and m for "female" and "male."  Then f = m + 16, and f + m = d (total)

So now we have the system of linear equations

f = m + 16
f + m = d

We can eliminate f by subst. m + 16 for f in the second equation:
                                                                                                           d-16
m + 16 + m = d, or 2m + 16 = d.  Find m.  2m = d - 16, so that m = --------
                                                                                                               2

Assuming that the male horses are either brown or black, and that 25% of these are brown, then the rest must be black.  This number is
           
            d-16
0.75 [ --------- ] .

How many feet are in 100 meters if 1 meter is 1.09 yards? Will mark brainliest if you include clear steps. Thank you!
kramer
Well, there are 3 feet in 1 yard, and 1.09 yards in 1 meter, so then

\bf 100~\underline{m}\cdot \cfrac{1.09~\underline{yd}}{\underline{m}}\cdot \cfrac{3~ft}{\underline{yd}}\implies \cfrac{100\cdot 1.09\cdot 3~ft}{1}\implies 327~ft

notice, we use the ratio, and whichever unit you want cancelled, you simply flip the ratio to have it cancelled, if the "m" is atop and you need that cancel, use the ratio with the "m" at the bottom, m/m = 1, and so they cancel out, and so on.

19. Find the current in a circuit if the power is 500 W (watts) and the resistance is 25 ohms. Round off your answer to two deci
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula that relates current, power and resistance is

I=\sqrt{\frac{P}{R}}

Where

I is the current (in amperes)

P is the power (in watts)

R is the resistance (in ohms)

We know P = 500 and R = 25, we plug them into the formula and solve for I:

I=\sqrt{\frac{P}{R}}\\I=\sqrt{\frac{500}{25}}\\I=\sqrt{20}\\ I=4.47

Correct answer is 4.47 Amperes, or choice A.
