Since there are 5 cats and 2 dogs, divide cats by dogs for the number.

5/2= 2.5

There are 2.5 times more cats than dogs.

I hope this helps!

Calculate the area of this triangle 18cm 11cm 14cm
seraphim [82]

Answer:

  about 77 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From 3 sides, the area of a triangle is conveniently calculated using Heron's formula:

  A = √(s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c))

where s is the semi-perimeter: s = (a+b+c)/2.

For the given values of a, b, c, we have ...

  s = (a+b+c)/2 = (18 +11 +14)/2 = 21.5

  A = √(21.5·3.5·10.5·7.5) = √5925.9375

  A ≈ 76.9801 . . . cm^2

The area is about 77 square centimeters.

What is the length and width of a room that is 60 square meters and has a perimeter of 32 meters
AleksAgata [21]
L = lenght
W = width

L * W = 60 \\
2L + 2W=32\\\\
L = \frac{32-2W}{2}\\
\frac{32-2W}{2}*W = 60\\
(16-W)*W = 60\\
-W^{2} + 16W -60 = 0\\\\

d = 16^{2} - 4*1*60 =  256 - 240 = 16 \\\\
W1 = \frac{-16+\sqrt{16}}{-2} =  \frac{-12}{-2} = 6\\
W2 = \frac{-16-\sqrt{16}}{-2} =  \frac{-20}{-2} = 10\\

L1 = 10\\
L2 = 6\\


so

{L,W} = {6,10} or {10,6}

but L > W  so

L = 10
W = 6

What would be the value of $100 after 10 years if you earn 11 percent interest per year
uysha [10]
10 times 11% is 11 dollars, so 11 times 10 equals 110. Then 110 plus 100 equals 210. So you'd have $210 after ten years with 11 percent interest.

in a box full of oranges, apples, and pears in a ratio 2:5:6. What is the total weight of the fruits in the box if it was known
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

31.2 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2x = weight of oranges

5x = weight of apples

6x = weight of pears

2x + 5x + 6x = total weight

2x = 4.8

x = 2.4

4.8 + 5(2.4) + 6(2.4) = 4.8 + 12 + 14.4

= 31.2 lbs
