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

On one day a pet store sells 2 birds 6 gerbils 3 fish and 3 hamsters whats the data and relative frequency as a percent?

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Birds $F_b=14.3\%$

Gerbils $F_g=42.9\%$

Fish $F_f=21.4\%$

Hamsters $F_h=21.4\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sales

Number of birds $n_b=2$

Number of gerbils $n_g=6$

Number of fish $n_f=3$

Number of hamsters $n_h=3$

Generally the frequency for birds $F_b$ is mathematically given b

$F_b=\frac{n_b}{n}*100$

$F_b=\frac{2}{14}*100$

$F_b=14.3\%$

Generally the frequency for Gerbils $F_g$ is mathematically given b

$F_g=\frac{n_g}{n}*100$

$F_g=\frac{6}{14}*100$

$F_g=42.9\%$

Generally the frequency for fish $F_f$ is mathematically given b

$F_f=\frac{n_f}{n}*100$

$F_f=\frac{3}{14}*100$

$F_f=21.4\%$

Generally the frequency for fish $F_h$ is mathematically given b

$F_h=\frac{n_h}{n}*100$

$F_h=\frac{3}{14}*100$

$F_h=21.4\%$

When a number is added to 1/5 of itself, the result is 24. The equation that models this problem is n +1/5 n = 24. What is the v

Lady_Fox [76]

For this case we must find the value of n of the following equation:

$n + \frac {1} {5} n = 24$

Taking common factor "n" from the left side of the equation we have:

$n (1+ \frac {1} {5}) = 24\\n \frac {6} {5} = 24$

Multiplying by 5 on both sides of the equation:

$6n = 120$

Dividing between 6 on both sides of the equation:

$n = 20$

Thus, the value of n is 20.

Answer:

$n = 20$
