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

Describe how to draw a line that passes through the origin and has a slope of 3/5
ANEK [815]
The "origin" of a line is simply the points (0, 0)

To draw a line that passes through the origin (0, 0) & has a slope of 3/5, we simply start by drawing a point at (0, 0).

Then, from there, you use the slope to find your next points.

Slope = rise/run

So, 3 is the rise, and 5 is the run.

So, starting from (0, 0), you go up 3 times, and go to the right 5 times. So, (3, 5) is your next point. Just continue doing that and you'll get a line.

Express in partial fraction
aksik [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>There is one possible way:</u>

  • (4x² - 47x + 141)/(x² + 13x + 40) =
  • (4x² + 4*13x + 4*40 - 47x - 52x - 160 + 141)/(x² + 13x + 40) =
  • 4  - (99x + 19)/(x² + 13x + 40)  

No further simplification
