Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
C = number of cats
D = number of dogs
Raul's pet store has a play area that can fit up to 30 cats and dogs.
C + D = 30
The pet store never has more than 8 cats in the play areas.
<h2>
C < 9</h2>
(there can never be 9 or more cats)
As or the number of dogs :
C + D = 30
C = 30 - D
Since we know that C < 9. To get the number of dogs allowed, we just plug in 30 - D for C.
30 - D < 9
30 - 9 < D
or
<h2>
D > 21</h2>
(dogs have to be 22 or more)
Sum = ADDITION SO ... 11 + 12 = 23.
Step-by-step explanation:
x²+4x=8
rearrange
x² + 4x - 8 = 0
half of 4 is 2
so
x² + 4x + 2² - 2² - 8 = 0
do x² + 4x + 2²
multiplies to give 4 adds to give 4
2+ 2
(x + 2)²
(x + 2)² - 2² - 8
(x + 2)² - 4 - 8
(x + 2)² - 12
(x + 2 + √12) (x + 2 - √12)
√12 = √4 * √3 = 2 √3
(x + 2 + 2√3) (x + 2 - 2√3)
