Meghan needs to board her cats and dogs at a kennel while she's on vacation. Pet Hotel charges $42.50 for a cat and $64.00 for a
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

3 dogs and 2 cats.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we can solve it using a 2x2 system of equations, like this:

let x: number of cats

let y: number of dogs

So:

42.5 * x + 64 * y = 277

35.5 * x + 50.5 * y = 222.5 => x = (222.5 - 50.5 * y) /35.5

Replacing, we are left with that:

42.5 * (222.5 - 50.5 * y) /35.5 + 64 * y = 277

266.37- 60.45 * y + 64 * y = 277

64 * y - 60.45 * y = 277 - 266.37

3.55 * y = 10.63

y = 10.63 / 3.55

y = 2.99, about 3

Now to calculate x:

x = (222.5 - 50.5 * 3) /35.5

x = 2

Which means that it has a total of 3 dogs and 2 cats.

Use the discriminant of the following quadratic equation to state the number and type of solutions. 3x^(2)+4x-5=3x+2
krek1111 [17]
3x^(2)+4x-3x-5-2=0
3x^(2)+x-7=0
Discriminat= b^(2)-4ac= 1^(2)-4(3)(-7)= 1-12(-7)=1+84=85
The discrimination is bigger than 0 (delta>0) therefore there are 2 real solutions
