X is  the number of dog
y is the number of cats , y=40
25% of x is  25*x /100=25x/100=x/4
<span>and there are 25% more cats than dogs means y+ x/4=x implies 40=(3/4)x
</span>x=160/3=53
so the number of dogs is 53 and the number of cats is 40
the total number is 53+40=93

X - number of dogs,
100%+ 25%= 125%
x * 1.25 = 40
x = 40 : 1.25
x = 32
There are 32 dogs.
In total: 32 + 40 = 72 animals.

Which number gives you an irrational product when you multiply it by 2
soldi70 [24.7K]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

An irrational number is a number that can't be written as a simple fraction while a rational number is a number that can be written as the ratio of two integers, that is, as a simple fraction. So in this case we have the number 2 which is ration, and we can multiply it by an irrational number n such that the product is an irrational number. So any irrational number will meet our requirement because the product of any rational number and an irrational number will lead to an irrational number. For instance:

\bullet \ 2\sqrt{2} \\ \\ 2 \ is \ rational \\ \\ \sqrt{2} \ is \ irrational \\ \\ 2\sqrt{2} \ is \ irrational \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ 2\pi \\ \\ 2 \ is \ rational \\ \\ \pi \ is \ irrational \\ \\ 2\pi \ is \ irrational

  • you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
  • Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
<h3>How many buses would it take to carry only the boys?</h3>

We know that there are (3 + 1/2) groups, such that each group fill one bus.

2/5 of the students are boys, then the number of groups that we can make only with boys is:

(2/5)*(3 + 1/2) = 6/5 + 1/5 = 7/5 = 5/5 + 2/5 = 1 + 2/5

Then you can make one and a little less than a half of a group, which means that you need 1 and 2/5 of a buss to transport the boys, rounding that to the a whole number, you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.

<h3>How far is Mark from his house?</h3>

The original distance is:

D = (2 + 3/4) miles.

But Mark only covers 2/3 of that distance, then we have:

d = (2/3)*D = (2/3)*(2 + 3/4) miles = (4/3 + 2/4) miles

d = (4/3 + 1/2) miles = (8/6 + 3/6) miles = (1 + 5/6) miles

Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
