Answer:

There are 24 cats  at the shelter on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of an animal shelter per day to care for each cat =$1.00

Cost of an animal shelter per day to care for each dog = $4.50

Let number of cats be c

Let number of dogs be d

According to question,

We will use "Substitution Method ",

Put in the second equation :

so, Number of dogs = 25

and

Hence, Number of cats is 24.

<h3>Answer:  8 cats</h3>

============================================================

Work Shown:

c = number of cats

d = number of dogs

c+d = 24 total animals

c = 24-d ... subtract d from both sides

1c = cost in dollars to care for c number of cats

8d = cost in dollars to care for d number of dogs

c+8d = total cost = 136

c+8d = 136

24-d+8d = 136 ... replace c with 24-d

7d+24 = 136

7d+24-24 = 136-24 ... subtract 24 from both sides

7d = 112

7d/7 = 112/7 .... divide both sides by 7

d = 16

There are 16 dogs.

c = 24-d

c = 24-16

c = 8

<h3>There were 8 cats.</h3>

9(5x + 1) ÷ 3y
Ivan

Some definitions:

Sum - the result of adding values together

Term - a single number or variable (includes variables multiplied by numbers)

Factor - a number or variable that divides another number or expression evenly

Quotient - the result of dividing values by one another

Coefficient - a numerical or constant value often in front of a variable

In your equation:

Sum - (5x + 1)

5x and 1 are being added together, although we do not know the sum exactly, we know that the sum is equal to the value of 5 times x plus 1.

Term - (5x, 1, 3y)

All terms given above are applicable.

Factor - (9)

9 has been taken out of the expression that it is now being multiplied, which shows that it was factored out of that expression

Quotient - (9(5x + 1) / 3y)

The value of 9(5x + 1) is being divided by 3y. Though we do not know the quotient exactly, we know that the quotient is equal to the values given.

Coefficient - (5, 3)

Both 5 and 3 are numbers in front of variables.

Hope this helps!! :)

Find the area A of the polygon with the given vertices.
Natalija [7]

Answer:

A = 35 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to calculate the distance between two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is,

d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Length of the segment between A(2, 2) and B(9, 2) = \sqrt{(9-2)^2+(2-2)^2}

                                                                                     = 7 units

Length of the segment between B(9, 2) and C(9, -3) = \sqrt{(9-9)^2+(2+3)^2}

                                                                                       = 5 units

Length of the segment between C(9, -3) and D(2, -3) = \sqrt{(9-2)^2+(-3+3)^2}

                                                                                        = 7 units

Length of the segment between A(2, 2) and D(2, -3) = \sqrt{(2-2)^2+(2+3)^2}

                                                                                       = 5 units

Therefore, given polygon is a rectangle.

Area of the rectangle = length × width

                                    = 7 × 5

                                    = 35 square units
