Answer:

The answer to your question is the big dog weighs 120 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

big dog = b    

medium dog = m

small dog = s

Equations

       b = 5s

       m = 12 + s

       s = 2/3 m

Process

1.- Substitute m in the last equation

       s = 2/3(12 + s)

       s = 24/3 + 2/3s

       s - 2/3s = 8

       1/3 s = 8

             s = 8(3)

             s = 24 pounds

2.- Substitute s in the first equation

        b = 5(24)

        b = 120 pounds

Consider the given function and the given interval. f\(x\) = (x - 7)**2 text(, ) [5 text(, ) 11] (a) Find the average value fave
Jet001 [13]

a. f has an average value on [5, 11] of

f_{\rm ave}=\displaystyle\frac1{11-5}\int_5^{11}(x-7)^2\,\mathrm dx=\frac{(x-7)^3}{18}\bigg|_5^{11}=\frac{4^3-(-2)^3}{18}=4

b. The mean value theorem guarantees the existence of c\in(5,11) such that f(c)=f_{\rm ave}. This happens for

(c-7)^2=4\implies c-7=\pm2\implies c=9\text{ or }c=5

42.5 i think

The whole angle is 127 minus the angle we know (32) this leaves us with 85 for the rest of the angle but we still have to deal with the angle bisector so we divide it by 2 leaving us with 42.5 I'm pretty sure.
