The ratio of dogs to cats in a park is 10 to 9. If there are 50 dogs then how many cats are there

1 answer:

6 0

Knowing the ratio for dogs to cats is 10:9

To get to 50 dogs they multiplied 10x5

So multiply 9x5 as well to get the number of cats

Cats = 45

:) hope this helps

Suppose a club publishes a newsletter. Expenses are$.50 for printing and mailing each copy, plus$300 total for research and writ

luda_lava [24]

200 copies must be sold

n= number od newsletters

0,50*n+300=2,00*n

300=1,5*n

Divide both sides by 1,5

200=n

0,50*200+300=2*200

100+300=400

400=400

What is the equation of the following line? be sure to scroll down first to see all answer options

Answer:

The equation for the following graph:

$y = -\frac{1}{5}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

- You first need to find the slope by using the slope formula:

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

(where $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is the first point and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ is the second point)

-Use the given points $(0,0)$ and $(10, -2)$ from the graph for the formula:

$m = \frac{-2 - 0}{10 - 0}$

Then, you solve:

$m = \frac{-2 - 0}{10 - 0}$

$m = -\frac{1}{5}$

After you have found the slope, use the slope $-\frac{1}{5}$ and the first point $(0,0)$ for the point-slope formula:

$y - y_{1} = m ( x - x_{1})$

(where $m$ is the slope and $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ is the first point)

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5} ( x - 0)$

Then, you solve:

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5} ( x - 0)$

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5}x - 0$

$y - 0 + 0 = -\frac{1}{5} - 0 + 0$

$y = -\frac{1}{5}x$

So, the equation for the following graph is $y = -\frac{1}{5}x$ .
