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.

Graph the linear equation
baherus [9]
For the equation
.. x - y = 4
you can divide by 4 to put the equation into intercept form. This form shows you both interecepts at once.
.. x/4 +y/(-4) = 1

The x-intercept is (4, 0).
The y-intercept is (0, -4).

The graph is shown below.

A rectangular prism with a volume of 2 cubic units is filled with cubes with side lengths of 1/4​ unit. How many 1/4 unit cubes
34kurt

Answer:

128

Step-by-step explanation:

Method A.

The volume of the prism is 2 cubic units.

Each cube has side length of 1/4 unit.

The volume of each cube is (1/4)^3 cubic unit.

The volume of each cube is 1/64 cubic unit.

To find the number of cubes that fit in the prism, we divide the volume of the prism by the volume of one cube.

(2 cubic units)/(1/64 cubic units) =

= 2/(1/64)

= 2 * 64

= 128

Method B.

Imagine that the prism has side lengths 1 unit, 1 unit, and 2 units (which does result in a 2 cubic unit volume.) Since each cube has side length 1/4 unit, then you can fit 4 cubes by 4 cubes by 8 cubes in the prism. Then the number of cubes is: 4 * 4 * 8 = 128
