Answer:

The sum −3 is an indication that Sally is 3 feet below her initial position.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the distances going up (ascend) as positive and distances going down (descend) as negative so that the sum is:

224 + (-131) + 67+ (-163)

Add by using the commutative property:

224 + 67 + (-131) + (-163) = 291

The sum −3 is an indication that Sally is 3 feet below her initial position.

Applications: Sarah's Pet Store never has more than a combined total of 16 cats and dogs. She also never has more than 9 cats. W

ankoles [38]

The possible solution is 12 cats and 4 dogs in Sarah's store.

Let x represent the number of cats and y represent the number of dogs.

Since Sarah's Pet Store never has more than a combined total of 16 cats and dogs. Hence:

x + y ≤ 16

Also, She also never has more than 9 cats. Therefore:

x > 9

The solution to the inequality is graphed. From the graph, the possible solution is 12 cats and 4 dogs

nika2105 [10]

Answer: i didnt understand the answer choice but the correct answer is 48/12=width. width=4

Step-by-step explanation:
as we know the area of a rectangle is area=length X width
so we plug in 48 as area and 12 as length

48=12 x width
48/12=width(divide both sides by 12)
