Set up a ratio comparing the sample portion to the whole portion.

x= # of all dogs likely to have chip

Sample: 8 out of 50
Whole: x out of 2,300

8/50= x/2300
cross multiply

(50*x)= (8*2300)
50x= 18400

divide both sides by 50
x= 368


ANSWER: 368 dogs in Clarkson are likely to have a microchip.

Hope this helps! :)

The height of a triangle is 8 centimeters greater than half its base. The area of the triangle is 48 square centimeters what is
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

base = 8 cm

height = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need the formula for area of a trianlge, which is

A = (1/2)bh    where b is the base, and h is the height

We are given two formulas...

"The height of a triangle is 8 centimeters greater than half its base" becomes

  h = (1/2)b + 8

"The area of the triangle is 48 square centimeters" becomes

48 = (1/2)bh

Plug the first formula into the second to solve for h

48 = (1/2)b[(1/2) + 8]             (h becomes (1/2)b + 8)

Now solve for b

48 = (1/4)b² + 4b

**This is a quadratic euquation.  Solve using factoring...

(1/4)b² + 4b - 48 = 0       (subtract 48 from both sides)

b² + 16b - 192  =  0       (multiply by 4 so b² is by itself, it's easier to factor this way)

Now factor...

(b + 24)(b - 8) = 0       (you need two numbers that add to 16 and multiply to -192)

Set each binomial equal to zero and solve for b

b + 24 = 0          

    b = -24    

**this anwser is not valid because b is a length, and you can't have negative length

b - 8 = 0

  b = 8        

Since the other solution is invalid, the base is b

If the base is b, then the height is...

h = (1/2)b + 8

 

   h = (1/2)(8) + 8

     h = 4 + 8

 

         h = 12

Mr. Thomas drove 75 miles in May. He drove 6 times as many miles in July as he did in May. He
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

1800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May = 75

It is given that miles driven in July is 6 times of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May(75 miles).

Thus

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July = 6 * No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May   = 6*75 = 450 miles.

__________________________________________________

Another condition given   that miles driven in June is 4 times of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July(450miles as calculated above).

Thus

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in June = 4 * No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July   = 4* 450 miles = 1800 miles.

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in June is 1800 miles.

Please answer correctly !!!! Will mark brainliest !!!!!!!!!!!!
andrezito [222]

Answer:

7-x

Step-by-step explanation:

49 - x^2 is a perfect square so

it factors to :(7+x)(7-x)

since there is a negative in 49 - x^2, it would make sense that the answer would be a negative to get that negative answer in the first place (negative times a positive equals a negative)

Forgive me for my lame explanation :')
