Number of dogs in the shelter are 12

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given that total animals = 108 and number of ferrets = 1/3 of 108. Find number of ferrets in the shelter.

Number of ferrets = 1/3 of 108 = 1/3 × 108 = 36

Step 2:

Given that of the remaining animals, number of cats = 5/6. Find the remaining animals and the number of cats.

Remaining number of animals = 108 - 36 = 72

Number of cats = 5/6 of 72 = 5/6 × 72 = 60

Step 3:

Find number of dogs in the shelter.

Number of dogs = 108 - (36 + 60) = 108 - 96 = 12

Answer:

Yes;Each side of triangle PQR is the same length as the corresponding side of triangle STU

Step-by-step explanation:

You can observe the sides of both triangles to see if this property holds

Lets check the length of AB

A(0,3) and B(0,-1)

$AB=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(-1-3)^2} \\\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{0^2+-4^2} \\\\\\AB=\sqrt{16} =4units$

Now check the length of the corresponding side DE

D(1,2) and E(1,-2)

$DE=\sqrt{(1-1)^2+(-2-2)^2} \\\\\\DE=\sqrt{0^2+-4^2} \\\\\\DE=\sqrt{16} =4units$

The side AB has the same length as side DE.This is also true for the remaining corresponding sides.

If 3x+54+(65 × 32)+ 902- (43/12) =y, then what is y?

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

We cannot solve without a value for x. The simplified form is $3x+\frac{36,389}{12} =y$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation is $3x+54+(65)(32)+902-\frac{43}{12}=y$ then we cannot solve it until we know the value of x. We can simplify it using order of operations such as PEMDAS.

$3x+54+(65)(32)+902-\frac{43}{12}=y \\3x+54+2,080+902-\frac{43}{12}=y \\3x+3,036-\frac{43}{12}=y \\3x+\frac{36,432}{12} -\frac{43}{12} =y\\3x+\frac{36,389}{12} =y$

Graph a line that contains the point (3,-6) and has a slope of -1/2

djyliett [7]

If I were you, I would make the starting point (3,-6). From there, you will want to use the slope of -1/2 (go down 1 unit and to the right 2 units and draw a point)
