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

Find 15 * 15 * 15 * 500 how does this compare to finding 45 x 500
andrew11 [14]
15 * 15 * 15 * 500 = 1,687,500. it's different from finding 45 * 500 because 
15 * 15* 15 * 500 is the same as writing it as 15^3 * 500. This meaning you multiply the number 15 by itself 3 times, not add it 3 times, which is what
45 * 500 was showing. I hope this helped.

the basketball court in the park is rectangle two of the sides are 84 feet long and the other two sides are 50 ft long what is t
butalik [34]
Hello!

So, we know that the length of the rectangular basketball court is 84 ft, and the width is 50 ft.

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

P = 2l + 2w

This means that we need to multiply the length by two and the width by two as well.

Substitute:

P = 2(84) + 2(50)

P = 168 + 100

P = 268 ft

ANSWER:

The perimeter of the basketball court is 268 feet long.
