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

3<em>x</em>⁴ = 3<em>x</em>³ • <em>x</em>, and

3<em>x</em>³ (<em>x</em> - 2) = 3<em>x</em>⁴ - 6<em>x</em>³

Subtract this from the numerator to get a remainder of

(3<em>x</em>⁴ - 8<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (3<em>x</em>⁴ - 6<em>x</em>³) = -2<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5

-2<em>x</em>³ = -2<em>x</em>² • <em>x</em>, and

-2<em>x</em>² (<em>x</em> - 2) = -2<em>x</em>³ + 4<em>x</em>²

Subtract this from the previous remainder to get a new remainder of

(-2<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (-2<em>x</em>³ + 4<em>x</em>²) = -5<em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5

-5<em>x</em>² = -5<em>x</em> • <em>x</em>, and

-5<em>x</em> (<em>x</em> - 2) = -5<em>x</em>² + 10<em>x</em>

Subtract this from the last remainder to get a new one of

(-5<em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (-5<em>x</em>² + 10<em>x</em>) = -<em>x</em> + 5

-<em>x</em> = -1 • <em>x</em>, and

-1 (<em>x</em> - 2) = -<em>x</em> + 2

This gives a new remainder of

(-<em>x</em> + 5) - (-<em>x</em> + 2) = 3

3 does not divide <em>x</em>, so we're done.

So, we have

(3<em>x</em>⁴ - 8<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) / (<em>x</em> - 2) = 3<em>x</em>³ - 2<em>x</em>² - 5<em>x</em> - 1 + 3/(<em>x</em> - 2)

Pls help I will give brainliest
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the distance around the figure--we need to find the perimeter

we have rectangle that has the side, 8 and 15

P(r)=2(8)+2(15)=16+30=46

we also have half of the circle with the diameter =8 and r=4

Circumference =2*3.14*r

C=2*3.14*4=25.12

we need just half of the circle 25.12/2=12.56

P figure=46+12.56=58.56

Area= rectangle=l*w=8*15=120

Area(circle)=3.14*r^2=3.14*16=50.24

half circle 50.24/2=25.12

Area figure=120+25.12=145.12

Help ASAP thank you!! And show work !
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

c. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f(x) is the regular graph. Since the inverse function flips the x and y coordinates, f inverse of 4 is actually where y=4, not x=4. so the x coordinate where y is 4 is -2.
