Answer:

5 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

  d/c = 5/1

    d = 25      Substitute in the proportion

25/c = 5/1     Multiply both sides by c

  25 = 5c/1

  25 = 5c      Divide each side by 5

    c = 5

There are five cats.

What is the math answer
never [62]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular diameter to the chord divides it into two congruent parts.

Since

  • VU⊥XS,
  • XT=3b-1,
  • TS=b+5,

we have that XT=TS.

Hence,

3b-1=b+5,

3b-b=5+1,

2b=6,

b=3.

So,

XT=3·3-1=9-1=8

TS=3+5=8

and

XS=XT+TS=8+8=16.

If a line has a slope of 2 and contains the point (-2,1), what is its equation in point-slope form?
kondaur [170]
The equation for slope is y=mx+b. slope is m. 2 is the slope. so you know the m part of the equation is 2. just by eliminating the answers that don’t have 2 as the slope, A is your answer.

A brand new filled jar of salsa is 11 cm tall and a has a radius of 6 cm. Kelly eats some of the salsa and the salsa in the jar
Sonbull [250]

Before we begin please note that a jar is always cylindrical in shape if not mentioned otherwise. Thus, we will take a cylindrical jar in this case.

Since Kelly eats some of the salsa and the salsa in the jar is now 6 cm high, we know that Kelly ate the amount of Salsa whose volume is missing from the jar.

To find the missing volume on the Salsa jar all that we need to do is to find the height of the missing volume which is given to us as h= 6 cm. We already know that the radius of the jar, r=6 cm. Thus, the amount of Salsa Kelly has eaten is:

V=\pi(6)^2\times 6\approx678.6\approx679 cm^3

Thus, the third option is the correct answer

X^2+2x-5=0 quadratic form
julsineya [31]

Answer:

-1+√6

-1-√6

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+2x-5=0

x=(-2±√(2²-4(-5)))/2=(-2±√(4+20))/2=(-2±√24)/2

x₁=(-2+√24)/2 or x₂=(-2-√24)/2

x₁=(-2+2√6)/2 or (-2-2√6)/2

x₁=-1+√6 or x₂=-1-√6

If the point (2, 5) is a solution to the system of equations shown below, then determine the missing values of b and m. Show how
antoniya [11.8K]

Complete Question:

If the point (2, 5) is a solution to the system of equations shown below, then determine the missing values of b and m. Show how you arrive at your answer.

1. y = 3x + b

2. y = mx + 9

Answer:

1. Intercept, b = -1

2. Slope, m = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Points on the line (x, y) = (2, 5)

To find the missing values;

Mathematically, the equation of a straight line is given by the formula;

y = mx + b

Where;

  • m is the slope.
  • x and y are the points
  • b is the intercept.

1. y = 3x + b

Substituting the value of x and y, we have;

5 = 3(2) + b

5 = 6 + b

b = 5 - 6

<em>Intercept, b = -1</em>

2. y = mx + 9

Substituting the value of x and y, we have;

5 = m(2) + 9

5 = 2m + 9

2m = 5 - 9

2m = -4

m = -4/2

<em>Slope, m = -2</em>
