So,

The ratio of dogs to cats:
\frac{2}{5}

The other proportion:
\frac{x}{140}

\frac{2}{5} =  \frac{x}{140}

5 times 28 is 140.

Multiply the fraction by the appropriate form of 1
\frac{2}{5} * \frac{28}{28} =  \frac{56}{140}

There are 56 dogs when the number of cats is 140.

For the equation 4(2x-4)=8x+k, what value of K will create an equation with infinitely many solutions? Please show steps
strojnjashka [21]
If you use the distributive property, you will multiply 4 by 2x to get 8x and 4 by -4 to get -16.

8x-16=8x+k

If you want infinitely many solutions the equations on both sides of the equal sign need to be the same. So, k would need to be -16.
