Divide the limit by the weight of one book to find the number of books allowed.

70/12 = 5.833 books

You cannot send a part of a book, so round down. The answer is 5 books.

A zookeeper is monitoring the population of gazelles. The herd needs three times more males than females to thrive, and the zoo
avanturin [10]

Answer:

0 < x ≤ 12 and 0 < y ≤ 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,  x represents the number of female gazelles and y represents  the number of male gazelles.

The zoo only has room for 12 female gazelles.

∵ The number of rooms must be more than or equal to the total female gazelles ,

12 ≥ x

Also, number of animals can not be negative,

And, it must be greater than 0.

⇒ 0 < x ≤ 12,

⇒ 3(0) < 3x ≤ 3(12)

⇒ 0 < 3x ≤ 36

∵ Number of males gazelles = 3 × number of female gazelles

⇒ y = 3x

⇒ 0 < y ≤ 36

Hence, the constraints to represent a thriving population of gazelles at the zoo are,

0 < x ≤ 12,

0 < y ≤ 36

<u>Question 1</u>

If we let FE=x, then DE=x-5.

Also, as \overline{DF} bisects \overline{BC}, this means BE=EC=6.

Thus, by the intersecting chords theorem,

6(6)=x(x-5)\\\\36=x^2 - 5x\\\\x^2 - 5x-36=0\\\\(x-9)(x+4)=0\\\\x=-4, 9

However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning FE=9

<u>Question 2</u>

If we let CE=x, then because AB bisects CD, CE=ED=x.

We also know that since FB=17, the radius of the circle is 17. So, this means that the diameter is 34, and as AE=2, thus means EB=32.

By the intersecting chords theorem,

2(32)=x^2\\\\64=x^2\\\\x=-8, 8

However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning CE=8
