Distribute -1 into the brackets.
-2(a - 8) + 6a = 36
-2a + 16 + 6a = 36
Take 16 to the other side
-2a + 6a + 16 = 36
               - 16   -16
-2a + 6a = 36 - 16
Combine like terms
4a = 20
Divide by 4 on either sides to isolate a
\frac{4a}{4} =  \frac{20}{4}
4 and 4 cancels out.
a = 5

the ratio of cats to dogs is 5 to 4 if there are a total of 63 cats and dogs how many dogs are there and how many cats ate there
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Number of cats is (5/9)(63) = 35, and number of dogs is (4/9)(63) = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ratio is 5 to 4.  Sum these up, obtaining 9.  Then (5/9) of the whole represents the number of cats, and (4/9) of the whole represents the number of dogs.

Number of cats is (5/9)(63) = 35, and

number of dogs is (4/9)(63) = 28

As a check:  35 + 28 = 63.

A flying carpet flies 2.4 miles with the wind in the same amount of time it flies 1.4 miles against the wind. The wind speed is
Ainat [17]

Answer:

15.2~mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time flown by the flying carpet be t. Then, we have that (2.4)/t=(1.4)/t+2*4.

We multiply both sides of the equation by t to get 2.4=1.4+8t.

We subtract 1.4 from both sides to get 1=8t.

We divide both sides of the equation by t=1/8.

We know that the speed of the flying carpet in still wind is the average of the rates of the speed of the flying carpet with the wind and against the wind.

The speed with wind is (2.4)/(1/8)=19.2mph.

The speed against wind is (1.4)/(1/8)=11.2mph.

The speed in still wind is (19.2+11.2)/2=(30.4)/2=15.2.

Therefore, the answer is \boxed{15.2~mph} and we're done!
