Fifty-six biscuits are to be fed to 10 pets; each pet is either a cat or a dog. each dog is to get six biscuits, and each cat is to get five. how many dogs are there?

Answer: There are 6 dogs  

Explanation:

Total number of biscuits = 56

Total number of Pets = 10

Now each dog is to be given 6 biscuits and each cat is to be given 5 biscuits.

Now if there are 6 dogs and each is to be given 6 biscuits and total biscuits given to 6 dogs = 6 x 6 =36

and there are 4 cats and each is to be given 5 biscuits and total biscuits given to 4 dogs = 4 x 5 =20

Therefore, total biscuits given to 6 dogs and 4 cats is 36+20= 56

the line passing through the points A (-1,3k) and B (k , 3) is parallel to the line whose equation is 2y+3x=9. write down the co
vodomira [7]

Answer:

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line passing through the points A (-1,3k) and B (k , 3) is parallel to the line whose equation is 2y+3x=9, then their slopes are equal

For coordinate AB;

slope m1 = 3 - 3k/k-(-1)

m1 = 3-3k/k+1

For the line 2y+3x = 9

2y = -3x + 9

y = -3/2 x + 9/2

Slope m2 = -3/2

Since m1 = m2

3-3k/k+1 = -3/2

Cross multiply

2(3-3k) = -3(k+1)

Expand

6 - 6k = -3k - 3

-6k+3k = -3 - 6

-3k = -9

k = -9/-3

k = 3

Hence the value of k is 3
