  • Answer:

<em>Aaron 14 years</em>

<em>Devon 17 years</em>

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>D = A + 3</em>

<em>D + A = 31</em>

<em>replace D</em>

An animal shelter houses ferrets, cats, and dogs. There are 108 animals at the shelter. Of the
Korvikt [17]

Number of dogs in the shelter are 12

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given that total animals = 108 and number of ferrets = 1/3 of 108. Find number of ferrets in the shelter.

Number of ferrets = 1/3 of 108 = 1/3 × 108 = 36

Step 2:

Given that of the remaining animals, number of cats = 5/6. Find the remaining animals and the number of cats.

Remaining number of animals = 108 - 36 = 72

Number of cats = 5/6 of 72 = 5/6 × 72 = 60

Step 3:

Find number of dogs in the shelter.

Number of dogs = 108 - (36 + 60) = 108 - 96 = 12

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :) Determine the zeros for and the end behavior of f(x) = x(x – 4)(x + 2)^4.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:  a) zeros: x = {0, 4, -2}

               b) as x → ∞,  y → ∞

                   as x → -∞,  y → ∞

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

I think you mean (a) find the zeros and (b) describe the end behavior

(a) Find the zeros by setting each factor equal to zero and solving for x:

      x (x - 4) (x + 2)⁴ = 0

  • x = 0   Multiplicity of 1  --> odd multiplicity so it crosses the x-axis
  • x = 4  Multiplicity of 1  --> odd multiplicity so it crosses the x-axis
  • x = -2 <u>Multiplicity of 4 </u> --> even multiplicity so it touches the x-axis

                       Degree  =  6

(b) End behavior is determined by the following two criteria:

  1. Sign of Leading Coefficient (Right side): Positive is ↑, Negative is ↓
  2. Degree (Left side): Even is same direction as right side, Odd is opposite direction of right side

Sign of the leading coefficient is Positive so right side goes UP

                                                                        as x → ∞,  y → ∞

Degree of 6 is Even so Left side is the same direction as right (UP)

                                                                        as x → -∞,  y → ∞

Find the equation of the linear function represented by the table below in the slope-intercept form.
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

y=x-32

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

slope=change in y/change in x

=5/5

y=5x+b --> choose a random point

(7,3) ---> 3=5(7)+b=35+b

b= -32

y=x-32
