Answer: 16 dogs.

Step-by-step explanation: If there are 20 cats and the ratio of dogs to cats is 4:5, I can divide 20 by 5. This equaling 4.

Then, you can multiply 4 x 4 to find the number of dogs there are in the animal shelter if there are 20 cats. So, that means there are 16 dogs and the ratio can be 16:20.

Theorem

In a triangle, the measure of an exterior angle equals the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles.

x + y = z

4n - 18 + n + 8 = 133 - 6n

5n - 10 = 133 - 6n

11n = 143

n = 13

z = 133 - 6n = 133 - 6(13) = 133 - 78 = 55

Answer: C. 55

Orchid wants to retile her bathroom floor, which has an area of 40 square feet. She is deciding between two types of custom tile
Gre4nikov [31]

Your answer is the second option, she should choose the rectangular tiles because the total cost will be $8 less.

To find this answer we need to first find the total cost for using square tiles, and the cost for using rectangular tiles, and compare them. We can do this by finding the area of each tile individually, calculating how many tiles we would need, and multiplying this by the cost for one tile:

Square tiles:

The area of one square tile is 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4 ft. Therefore we need 40 ÷ 1/4 = 160 tiles. If each tile costs $0.45, this means the total cost will be $0.45 × 160 = $72

Rectangular tiles:

The area of one rectangular tile is 2 × 1/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 ft. Thus we need 40 ÷ 1/2 = 80 tiles. Each tile costs $0.80, so the total cost will be 80 × $0.80 = $64.

This shows us that the rectangular tiles will be cheaper by $8.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

Prove (x+y)^2=x^2+2xy+y^2
Scrat [10]
Rules of exponents and the distributive property apply.
  (x+y)² = (x+y)·(x+y) . . . . . meaning of exponent of 2
  = x·(x+y) +y·(x+y) . . . . . . . distributive property
  = x·x +x·y +y·x +y·y . . . . . distributive property
  = x² +x·y +x·y +y² . . . . . . meaning of exponent of 2, commutative property of multiplication
  = x² +(1+1)·x·y +y² . . . . . . distributive property
  = x²+2xy+y² . . . . . . . . . the desired form
Thus
  (x+y)² = x²+2xy+y²

Find the area giving brainlieas
Lelu [443]

Answer: 6.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information we have, we first need to turn this into a parallelogram. So, now that we have a parallelogram, we need to find the area of that and divide it by two. So 3 1/4 x 4 = 13

So now that we have the area of the square, we need to divide it by two. \frac{13}{2} = 6.5.

So our answer is <u>6.5 in</u>
