Answer:  The number of cats in the shelter the number of dogs in the shelter


Step-by-step explanation:

Given statement: There are 16 cats and 14 dogs in a local animal shelter.

Since, they are talking about only animal shelter.

here the first quantity is cats in the animal shelter and the second quantity is the number of the dogs in the animal shelter.

Thus here, "the number of cats in the shelter the number of dogs in the shelter " is the phrase which describe the relationship between the two quantities.

If -2 and 3 are zeroes of quadratic polynomial xsquare + (a+1)x+b then find the value of and b
ohaa [14]

Answer:

a = - 2, b = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the values of the zeros into the polynomial and equate to zero.

x² +(a + 1)x + b

x = - 2 → (- 2)² - 2(a + 1) + b = 0 , that is

4 - 2a - 2 + b = 0

2 - 2a + b = 0 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

- 2a + b = - 2 → (1)

x = 3 → 3² + 3(a + 1) + b = 0, that is

9 + 3a + 3 + b = 0

12 + 3a + b = 0 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

3a + b = - 12 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate b

5a = - 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )

a = - 2

Substitute a = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for b

Substituting into (2)

3(- 2) + b = - 12

- 6 + b = - 12 ( add 6 to both sides )

b = - 6

Thus a = - 2 and b = - 6

At a water park there is a slide that you really want to ride. In order to get to the top of the 29 foot slide you must first cl
murzikaleks [220]

Answer: 20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This represents a right angled triangle with the length of the slide being the hypotenuse, the height of the ladder being the height of the triangle and the distance from the base of the ladder being the length.

Solve with Pythagoras rule:

c² = a² + b²

c = hypotenuse

a= length

b = height

29² = 21² + b²

841 = 441 + b²

b² = 841 - 441

b² = 400

b = √400

b = 20 feet
