Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

the cat weighs 21 pounds.

the dog weighs 43 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

dog = 3x-20 = x + 22

cat = x

3x = x+42 (add 20 to both sides)

2x = 42 (subtract x from both sides)

Answer:

not

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&4\\1&3\end{array}\right] *\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&1\\3&7\end{array}\right]=$

First is A and Second is B

Let's find A*B

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2(-2)+4*3&-2*1+4*7\\1(-2)+3*3&1*1+3*7\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}16&26\\7&22\end{array}\right]$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&1\\3&7\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&4\\1&3\end{array}\right] =$

Now let's find B*A

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2(-2)+1*1&-2*4+1*3\\3(-2)+7*1&3*4+7*3\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&-5\\1&23\end{array}\right]$

c) They are not

lianna [129]

Answer:

The record alligator is $6\frac{1}{4}$ feet longer than the alligator Taylor saw.

Step-by-step explanation:

Taylor saw an American alligator at a zoo that measured $12\frac{11}{12}$ feet long. The record length of an American alligator is $19\frac{1}{6}$ feet long. How much longer is the record alligator than the alligator Taylor saw?

For this first convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction.

$12\frac{11}{12}=\frac{155}{12}$

$19\frac{1}{6}=\frac{115}{6}$

Now subtract $\frac{155}{12}$ from $\frac{115}{6}$ .

$\frac{115}{6}-\frac{155}{12}=\frac{75}{12}=6\frac{1}{4}$

Hence, the record alligator is $6\frac{1}{4}$ feet longer than the alligator Taylor saw.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

z = (-b + 17)/(a+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If in terms of a and b, then

az - 17 = -4z - b

z(a-4) = -b+17

z = (-b + 17)/(a+4)
