Answer: 78 pounds
Explanation: if 1 kilogram is 2.2 pounds, just multiply the weight in kg by 2.2:
35.4 x 2.2 = 77.88
Round to nearest whole: 78.
So the dog is 78 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there, the answer is C.
After multiplying, you will get .37278. However, it's asking you to consider the significant figure of 3 so you'll have to round it to .373. C has that only option
Answer:
7 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The depreciation rate of 12% using the declining balance method means the car is worth 12% less at the end of the year than it was worth at the beginning. That is, each year the value is multiplied by (1 -12%) = 0.88. So, after n years, the value has been multiplied by 0.88^n.
We want to find n such that ...
7600 = 18600·0.88^n
7600/18600 = 0.88^n
log(76/186) = n·log(0.88)
log(76/186)/log(0.88) = n ≈ 7.00
It will take 7 years for the value of the car to decline to $7600.

<em>Comment on declining balance depreciation</em>
Often, you will see declining balance depreciation specified in terms of an acceleration factor (often 150% or 200% ("double declining balance")) and a useful life. As with any depreciation, what is depreciated is the difference between the initial value and the salvage value. The percentage rate quoted above is essentially calculated as ...
(acceleration factor)/(useful life) = depreciation rate per year
One way to get a 12% depreciation rate is using an acceleration factor of 150% and a useful life of 12.5 years (with a salvage value of 0).
You got it correct
about + - 10.4
