Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find the area of the pen, then divide that by the area required by each dog.

__

The relationship between circumference and radius is ...

  C = 2πr

Solving for r gives ...

  r = C/(2π)

The relationship between radius and area of a circle is ...

  A = πr²

Substituting for r from above gives ...

  A = π(C/(2π))² = C²/(4π)

Filling in the given numbers, we find the area of the pen to be ...

  A = (78.5 ft)²/(4·3.14) = 490.625 ft²

__

Dividing the pen area by the area per dog gives the number of dogs the pen can hold:

  (490.625 ft²)/(60 ft²/dog) ≈ 8.18 dogs

The pen can safely keep 8 dogs.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

See answers to parts a and b below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Value: y=20+.20x

Best Rent y=30+.10x

B. 20+.20x=30+.10x make equations equal each other by subbing y values.

.10x=10 simplify equation

x=100

check answers by subbing 100 for x in each equation.

y=20+.20(100)

y=20+20

y=40

y=30+.10(100)

y=30+10

y=40

Both equations equal 40, so 100 is the correct number of miles for when Value equals Best Rent.
