Answer:

A) C. 7:16

B) second shelter

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Given that the shelter has a ratio of cats to dogs that is 9:7 and only houses dogs and cats, then there are 7 dogs for every 7+9 = 16 total number of animals, that is, the ratio of dogs to total animals is 7:16.

B) A ratio of 6:5 means that there are 6 cats for every 5 dogs. If the second shelter has 18 (=6*3) cats, then it has 3*5 = 15 dogs. That is, 6:5 is equivalent to 18:15

The first shelter has 9 cats for every 7 dogs. If it has 18 (=9*2) cats, then it has 7*2 = 14 dogs. That is, 9:7 is equivalent to 18:14

Answer:

C 7/16

Shelter B has more dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Cats : dogs : total

9            7        9+7=16

dogs/ total

7/16

Part B

Cats : dogs : total

6            5        6+5=11

If they both have 18 cats

Shelter A

Cats : dogs : total

9            7        16

Multiply by 2

18         14        32

Shelter B

Cats : dogs : total

6            5        11

Multiply by 3

18          15       33

Shelter A has 14 dogs, Shelter B has 15 dogs

Shelter B has more dogs

3x^{2} +1=28

Step 1 : subtract 1 from both sides

3x^{2} =27

Step 2 : Divide both sides by 3

\frac{\frac{3x^{2} }{3} }{\frac{27}{3} }

x^{2} = 9

Step 3 : Find the square root of 9

\sqrt{9} = 3

x= (-3,3)

remember negative × negative = positive
