Answer:
153,997 Labrador Retrievers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make an equation for this problem. We know that there were 9,860 Great Danes. The number of Labrador Retrievers was 6,997 more than 15 times the number of registered Great Danes. More than can be changed to a plus sign. 15 times the number of Great Danes is 15 times 9,860. The equation is now 15*9,860 + 6,997.
15*9,860 is 147,900
147,900 + 6,997 is 153,997.
You would do ten times fifty. which would be 500
Answer:
No, because AB is 2/5 the length MN but CD is 1/3 the length QP.
Step-by-step explanation:
Comparing the corresponding sides, the length of AB is 4. The length of MN is 10. This makes their ratio 4/10 = 2/5.
The length of CD is 2. The length of QP is 6. this makes their ratio 2/6 = 1/3.
The ratios of the sides are not the same, so the figure is not proportional and is therefore not a dilation.
Answer: Alvin = 42 yrs , Elga = 21 yrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Elga's age be x , and Alvin's age be y ,since Alvin is two times Elga's age , then
Alvin's age = 2x , that is
y = 2x ............... equation 1
The sum of their ages is 63 implies
x + y = 63 .............. equation 2
Solving the resulting linear equations by substitution method.
Substitute equation 1 into equation 2 , we have
x + 2x = 63
3x = 63
x = 63/3
x = 21
Therefore : Elga is 21 years old , then Alvin will be 21 x 2, which will be 42
