Answer:

Number of cats in the kennel = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

c denote the number of cats and

d be the number of dogs

Given that the ratio of dogs to cats is 3 to 2

So,

d:c=3:2

Sum of ratio is 5.

And the total number of cats and dogs is 20.

So in order to find the number of cats, following formula will be used:

Numbr\ of\ cats=\frac{ratio\ of\ cats}{sum\ of\ ratio}*Total\ number\ of\ animals\\ =\frac{2}{5}*20\\ =2*4\\=8

So, there are 8 cats in the kennel ..

Find f '(a).<br> f(x) = 4x2 − 4x + 3
Vinvika [58]
Use the power rule
  d(x^n)/dx = n·x^(n-1)
to form the derivative.
  f'(x) = 4·2x -4
  f'(x) = 8x - 4

Now, substitute "a" for "x" to find f'(a):
  f'(a) = 8a - 4

The length of a rectangle is five times its width.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 5w

A = l*w

180 = 5w *w

180 = 5w^2

Divide each side by 5

180/5 = 5w^2 /5

36 = w^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(36) = sqrt(w)^2

6 =w

l = 5w = 5*6 = 30

The perimeter is

P = 2(l+w)

P = 2(6+30) = 2(36) = 72
