Answer:
a = 1.5
b = 1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to solve
and replace the result in the initial equation as:

Then, this equality apply only if the coefficient of
is equal in both sides and the constant is equal in both sides.
It means that we have two equations:

So, using the first equation and solving for a, we get:

Finally, replacing the value of a in the second equation and solving for b, we get:

We know the distance formula is

9)
Here A( -4,2) and B(1,4)
So length of AB
= 
Also C(2,1)
Length of BC
= 
So we can see that length of AB is not equal to length of BC
11.
Now AB = 
Also C(2,-1) & D(4,4)
Length of CD
= 
Yes AB = CD
Step-by-step explanation:
1. add the numbers all together
(of the pets)
= 40 pets total
40 pets =100%
1 pet = 2.5%
percents:
Cat= 10, or 25%
Dog = 15, or 37.5 %
fish=8 or 20%
bird= 7 or 17.5%
angles:
dog= 135
cat= 90
fish= 72
bird= 63
