Answer:

10 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent

Number of rabbits = x

Number of squirrels = y

Number of deer = z

Katniss caught three times as many squirrels as deer.

y = 3z

She also caught five less rabbits than squirrels.

y = x - 5

The total number of animals she caught is ten more than four times the number of deer caught.

x + y + z = 4 × z + 10

x + y + z = 4z + 10

How many rabbits did Katniss catch?

Number of rabbits = x

We make x subject of the formula

x + y + z = 4z + 10

x = 4z + 10 - y - z

y = 3z

x = 4z + 10 - 3z - z

x = 4z - z - 3z + 10

x = 4z - 4z + 10

x = 0 + 10

x = 10

Therefore, the number of rabbits Katniss caught is 10 rabbits

A is inversely proportional to b. If a=7.2 when b=-4, what will a equal when b=6?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

<h2>a = - 4.8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of a when b=6 we must first find the relationship between them.

The statement

a is inversely proportional to b is written as

a \:  \:  \alpha  \:  \:  \frac{k}{b}

where k is the constant of proportionality

When a = 7.2 , b = -4

So we have

7.2=  \frac{k}{ - 4}

k = 7.2 × - 4

k = - 28.8

So the formula for the variation is

a =  -  \frac{28.8}{b}

When

b = 6

That's

a =  -  \frac{28.8}{6}

We have the final answer as

<h3>a = - 4.8</h3>

Hope this helps you

If an angle is obtuse what type of angle is its supplement
Butoxors [25]
The supplement of an obtuse angle is an acute because the angle number for an obtuse angle is any number greater than 90 degrees. So an acute angle is less than 90 degrees. The "supplement" definition is "any number less than 180 degrees." 

Hope this helps,
