Let the weight of Paula's dog be x
Let the weight of Carla's dog be y
We know that the weight of Paula's dog is 3 times that of Carla's dog, therefore:
x = 3y ...........> equation I
We also know that the sum of the weights is 48 pounds, therefore:
x + y = 48 ............> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II:
3y + y = 48
4y = 48
y = 12 pouds
Substitute with the value of y in equation I:
x = 3(12) = 36 pounds
Based on the above calculations:
Paula's dog weighs 36 pounds
Carla's dog weighs 12 pounds
Answer:
The second graph, as x approaches positive 2 is correct.
Explanation:
Create a table to find the points and graph to find the curve.
x. -2 1 0 1 -2
y. 11 5 3 2.3 2.1
Answer:
1/6? it has the common denominator
Do x divided by b on both sides and then add a on both sides. :)
Answer:
To find the scale factor, we simply create a ratio of the lengths of two corresponding sides of two polygons. If the ratio is the same for all corresponding sides, then this is called the scale factor and the polygons are similar.
