The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables.
 We have then:
 x: number of cats
 y: number of dogs
 We write the system of equations:
 x / y = 2/3
 (1/4) x + (1/2) y = 48
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 48
 y = 72
 The total number of animals is:
 x + y = 48 + 72 = 120
 Answer:
 
The total number of animals in the pet store is:
 
120

andrew11 [14]

The required diagram is attached in the picture below :

Answer:

15.05 miles

2 :09:12

5 hours 19 minutes 18 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

28/4/18:

Time : 1 :03 : 25

Fastest mile = 02 : 25

Distance = 15.05 miles

03/5/18:

Time : 2:06: 41

Fastest mile = 02 : 53

Distance = 28.70 miles

08/5/18:

Time : 2 :09:12

Fastest mile = 02 : 45

Distance = 26.39 miles2

1.) shortest distance cycled :

From the data:

15.05 < 26.39 < 28.70

Shortest distance cycled = 15.05 miles

The longest the cycled:

1 :03 : 25 < 2:06: 41 < 2 :09:12

Longest = 2 :09:12

Total cycling time :

1 :03 : 25 + 2:06: 41 + 2 :09:12

(1 + 2 + 2)= 5 hrs

(03 + 06+ 09) = 18 minutes

(25 + 41 + 12) = 78 seconds = 1 minute 18 seconds

18 minutes + 1 minute = 19 minutes

Total = 5 hours 19 minutes 18 seconds
