From the ratio given we know that there is 3 times more cats than dogs.
If there are 15 cats, then there are 15/3 dogs or 5 dogs.
answer: 5 dogs
Answers: The page numbers are 11 and 12
==========================================================
Explanation:
Consecutive integers are ones that follow immediately after another. For example, the set {7,8,9,10} are consecutive.
Let,
- x = first page, some positive whole number
- x+1 = second page, follows immediately after page x
Adding those two said pages will lead to 23
first + second = 23
(x) + (x+1) = 23
2x+1 = 23
2x = 23-1
2x = 22
x = 22/2
x = 11 is the first page
x+1 = 11+1 = 12 is the second page
Check: 11+12 = 23 which confirms the answers.
Answer 1:
It is given that the positive 2 digit number is 'x' with tens digit 't' and units digit 'u'.
So the two digit number x is expressed as,


The two digit number 'y' is obtained by reversing the digits of x.
So, 

Now, the value of x-y is expressed as:




So,
is equivalent to (x-y).
Answer 2:
It is given that the sum of infinite geometric series with first term 'a' and common ratio r<1 = 
Since, the sum of the given infinite geometric series = 200
Therefore,
Since, r=0.15 (given)



a=170
The nth term of geometric series is given by
.
So, second term of the series =
= ar
Second term = 
= 25.5
So, the second term of the geometric series is 25.5
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 * 4/5
5*4 20 1
----- = ----- = ---
8*5 40 2
5/8 * 4/5 = 1/2 or .5
You have written 0 = 4x.
The value of x that makes it true is x = 0, given that 4 times 0 is 0.
Nevertheless, I think you wanted to write 0 = 4 ^x (this is 4 raised to the power 4).
In that case, there is not any valued of x that satisfies the equation. This is, the equation is always false.
That is because, there is not any value of x for which 4^x is zero. The range of this function is al the positive values of x, which exclude zero.
