Marshall works at an animal shelter. He makes sure all the cats are vaccinated. In July, 56 of the cats entering the shelter had

already been vaccinated. Based on this result, he predicts that if 100 cats entered the shelter, 80 of the cats would have already been vaccinated. How many cats entered the animal shelter in July?

Answer: 70 animals

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Marshall predicted that if 100 cats entered the shelter, 80 of the cats would have already been vaccinated . This means that 80/100 = 4/5 of the animals that enter the shelter are vaccinated.

Let the animals that enter in July be y. This will be:

4/5 × y = 56

0.8y = 56

y = 56/0.8

y = 70

70 animals entered in July

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

a) 16.66%

b) 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Since the teacher assumes each of the three possibilities are equally likely, then he assumes 33.33% to each one.

In this case the probability that you traveled to school that day by car would be

50%  of 33.33% = (0.5)(0.3333) = 0.1666 = 16.66%

b)

In this case, the teacher would assume

90% ride on bicycle

0% take the bus

10% travel by car

So, in this case the probability would be

50% of 10% = (0.5)(0.1) = 0.05 = 5%

Use the discriminate to determine the number and the nature of the solutions of the giving equation.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2+12x=7

We need to subtract 7 to get it in the proper form

4x^2+12x-7=7-7

4x^2+12x-7=0

The discriminant is b^2 -4ac

when the equation is ax^2 +bx+c

so a =4   b=12 and c=-7

(12)^2 - 4(4)(-7)

144 +112

256

If b^2 -4ac > 0 we have 2 real distinct roots

If b^2 -4ac = 0 we have one real root

If b^2 -4ac < 0 we have two complex root

Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots
