Answer:

2 more cages

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of guinea pigs means , 2 guinea pigs per cage

If the pet store has 8 cages how many more cages will the pet store need?

For 8 cages

1 cage = 2 guinea pigs

8 cages = x

Cross Multiply

x = 8 × 2 guinea pigs

x = 16 guinea pigs

The pet store has 20 guinea pigs

The amount of guinea pigs left

= 20 - 16

= 4 guinea pigs

2 guinea pigs = 1 cage

4 guinea pigs = x

Cross Multiply.

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2 cages

Therefore, the pet store needs 2 more cages

In △ABC, ∠ABC = 60 degrees .
ira [324]

A given<u> shape</u> that is <em>bounded</em> by three <u>sides</u> and has got three <em>internal angles</em> is referred to as a <u>triangle</u>. Thus the <em>value</em> of <u>PB</u> is 8.0 units.

A given <em>shape</em> that is <u>bounded</u> by three<em> sides</em> and has got three <em>internal angles</em> is referred to as a <u>triangl</u>e. Types of <u>triangles</u> include right angle triangle, isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle, acute angle triangle, etc. The sum of the<em> internal angles</em> of any <u>triangle</u> is 180^{o}.

In the given question, point<u> P</u> is <u>center</u> of the given <u>triangle</u> such that <APB = <APC = <BPC = 120^{o}. Such that <u>line</u> PB <em>bisects</em> <ABC into two <u>equal</u> measures of 30^{o}.

Thus;

<ABP = 30^{o}

Thus,

<ABP + <APB + <BAP = 180^{o}

30 + 120 + <BAP = 180^{o}

<BAP = 180^{o} - 150

<BAP = 30^{o}

Apply the <em>Sine rule</em> to determine the value of PB, such that;

\frac{a}{SinA} = \frac{b}{SinB}

\frac{8}{Sin 30} = \frac{PB}{Sin 30}

BP = \frac{8*Sin 30}{Sin 30}

    = 8

BP = 8.0

Therefore, the value of <u>PB</u> = 8 units.
