-2 then -1 then 0 1 2 so it is 2
The cat travels 0.7 times as far as the dog on each stride, but it takes 1.3 times as many strides in a given time interval. Hence the cat's distance relative to the dog's is 0.7*1.3 = 0.91. This is less distance than the 1 unit the dog covers in the same time.
The dog will win the race.
Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by figuring out how much 1 cup of oil costs.
12 cups of oil is 36$
Let's set up a proportion.
12/36=1/x
Cross Multiply
12x=36
Divide both sides by 12.
x=3
1 cup of oil is $3.
Dinesh makes 5 batches of hummus, and each batch requires 1 cup of oil.
5*1=5
This means he needs 5 cups of oil.
5*3=15
He used $15 worth of oil in the 5 batches of his recipe.
However, since it is impossible to buy 5/12 bottles of oil, he would have needed to spend $36.
