Answer:
24 birds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the number of birds at the shelter on Wednesday. Then the cost of care for the 41 animals is ...
5b +7.5(41 -b) = 247.50
-2.5b +307.50 = 247.50 . . . . . simplify
-2.5b = -60 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 307.50
b = 24 . . . . . . . . . divide by -2.5
The number of birds at the shelter on Wednesday was 24.
Answer:
(2A /h) - b1 = b2
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 1/2 h ( b1 + b2)
Multiply each side by 2
2A = 2*1/2 h ( b1 + b2)
2A = h ( b1 + b2)
Divide each side by h
2A/h= h/h ( b1 + b2)
2A/h= b1 + b2
Subtract b1 from each side
2A /h - b1 = b2

Answer:
15 in, 36 in, 39 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells us that for short side x, the relation is ...
(2x +9)² = (2x +6)² +x²
4x² +36x +81 = 4x² +24x +36 +x²
x² -12x -45 = 0 . . . . . subtract the left-side expression
(x -15)(x +3) = 0 . . . . factor
x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . the positive value of x that makes a factor zero
The side lengths of the triangle are 15 inches, 36 inches, and 39 inches.
