Answer:

Let total number of dog and cat population in animal shelter be x.

As per the statement:

An animal shelter has 9 puppies.

⇒ Total number of puppies = 9

It is also given that if the puppies are 36% of the total dog and cat population.

⇒ 9 = 36\% \text{of}{\text{total number of dogs and Cat}

or

9 = \frac{36}{100} \times x

By cross multiply we get;

900 = 36 x

Divide both sides by 36 we get;

25 = x

Therefore, total number of dogs and cat population in animal shelter are 25

A square corner of 16 square centimeters is removed
oee [108]

Option C:

Area of the remaining paper = (3x – 4)(3x + 4) square centimeter

Solution:

Area of the square paper = 9x^2 sq. cm

Area of the square corner removed = 16 sq. cm

Let us find the area of the remaining paper.

Area of the remaining paper = Area of the square paper – Area of the corner

Area of the remaining = 9x^2-16

                                     = (3x)^2-(4)^2

Using algebraic formula: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

                                     =(3x-4)(3x+4)

Area of the remaining paper = (3x – 4)(3x + 4) square centimeter

Hence (3x – 4)(3x + 4)  represents area of the remaining paper in square centimeters.

Y = x^2 + 10x - 171
y = (x - 9)(x + 19)

x - 9= 0 x + 19 = 0
x = 9 x = -19

Answer B covers all requirements... the factored form is
y= (x + 19)(x - 9)
and the zeros are -19 and 9
