Number of dogs in the shelter in the last week is 35

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given in the first week of Jan, there are 49 dogs and 28 cats, find the ratio between them.

Ratio = 49/28 = 7/4

Step 2:

Since the ratio remains constant, use it to find the number of dogs in the shelter when cats = 20 in the last week of Jan.

Number of dogs/20 = 7/4

∴ Number of dogs = 20 × 7/4 = 35

3. Yes the cost of each item is proportional because in each pack each t-shirt cost $2.33. You can check that by dividing the amount of money each pack cost by the amount of shirts in each pack. For example the pack of 3 is $7, so 7/3 = $2.33. The pack of 5 cost $11.65, so 11.65/5 = $2.33. And the pack of 7 cost $16.31, so 16.31/7 = $2.33

4) Yes, it is proportional because each x is being squared or multiplied by it’s self.

25 less than 3 times a number is 38. What is the number?
Nookie1986 [14]

You would set up the problem like this: 3n-25=38

To solve for n:

3n-25=38

   +25 +25          (Add 25 to both sides)

3n=63

/3   /3                  (Divide by 3 on both sides)

n=21

The answer is 21.
