If we divide 55 (the total amount of money he made) by 5 (price to walk one small dog), we get 11. Meaning that the maximum amount of small dogs he could possibly walk and receive that amount of money is 11. However, he only walked 8 dogs. Therefore Ryan would have needed to walk a specific amount of large dogs in order to earn 55 dollars in total.

After doing some process of elimination, I reached this conclusion:

3 small dogs = $15

5 large dogs = $40

The combination of the two would equal $55.

Therefore, the answer would be 3 small dogs.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

2x - 0.4x ;

8x/5 ;

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of miles = x

Arlene:

Double number of miles = 2 * x = 2x

Subtract 20% of the result :

2x - 20% of 2x ;

2x - 0.4x

Raul:

Divides Number of miles by 5 ; x / 5

Multiplies result by 8 ;

8 * (x/5) = 8x /5

To know if expressions are equivalent :

Let x = 10 miles

Using Arlene's expression:

2x - 0.4x

x = 10

2(10) - 0.4(10) = 16

Using Raul's expression :

8x / 5

(8*10) / 5

80/5

= 16

Since they give the same result, we can conclude that the expression are equivalent

Michelle draws a card from a standard deck of 52 cards. She replaces the card and draws a second card. What is the probability t
erma4kov [3.2K]
To draw a heart, one would be choosing 1 card of 13 possible hearts, and 0 from the remaining 39 non-hearts. With respect to the entire deck, one would be choosing 1 card from 52 total cards. So the probability of drawing a heart is

\dfrac{\dbinom{13}1\cdot\dbinom{39}0}{\dbinom{52}1}=\dfrac{13\cdot1}{52}=\dfrac14

When Michelle replaces the card, the deck returns the normal, so the probability of drawing any card from a given suit is the same, \dfrac14. In other words, drawing a spade is independent of having drawn the heart first.

So the probability of drawing a heart, replacing it, then drawing a spade is \dfrac14\cdot\dfrac14=\dfrac1{16}.
