There are 5 times as many yellow labs as terriers in the dog park .if there are a total of 18 dogs how many dogs are terriers?

1 answer:

8 0

Let t = number of terriers
1 x t = number of total terriers
5 x t = number of yellow labs
1t + 5t = 6t
6t = total number of dogs in the park
6t = 18
t = 18/6
t = 3
there are 3 terriers

Solve r = 4/3(p-q) for p.

alekssr [168]

R =4/3 (p-q)
3 x r = 4 (p-q)
(3 x r)/4 = p - q

(3 x r)/4 - q = p

√(5-2x) - √(2-x) = 1

Eva8 [605]

Square both sides. (5-2x) - (2-x) = 1^2. 5 - 2x - 2 + x = 1. Simplify to get 3 - x = 1. X=2
