Answer:

\huge\boxed{576 \ \text{calories}}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the number of calories that an m kg animal weighs, we can substitute what we need inside the formula given, 72m^{\frac{3}{4}}. Since we want to find how much a 16 kg dog needs to eat, we substitute 16 in as m.

72\cdot 16^{\frac{3}{4}}

BPEMDAS tells us that the order of solving equations is

Brackets

Parantheses

Exponents

Multiplication/Division

Addition/Subtraction

Looking at this order, we need to do 16^{\frac{3}{4}}, then multiply by 72.

When we have a number to a fraction power, we need to note that

  • It's the same as taking the denominator root of the base to the numerator power

Therefore, our expression will be \sqrt[4]{16^3}.

  • 16^3 = 4096
  • \sqrt[4]{4096} = 8

Now that we have this much, we need to multiply it by 72 as our formula read 72m^{\frac{3}{4}}.

  • 72 \cdot 8=576

Therefore, an animal weighing 16 kg needs to consume 576 calories.

Hope this helped!

I need help!!! Parallel lines p and q are cut by two non parallel lines m and n as shown in the figure the value of x is degrees
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

x = 78° , y = 115°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle adjacent to x on the left side is corresponding to 102° , then

x = 180° - 102° = 78°

----------------------------------------

y and 115° are corresponding angles and congruent, then

y = 115°

what is an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through the points (1,-3) and (3,1)
Ede4ka [16]
Y=2x-5.
I found the slope using the formula m=y2-y1/x2-x1.
m=-3-1/1-3=-4/-2=2.

I used (3,1) (only use one point, your choice) to find out b. 3=x, 1=y.
y=mx+b is the formula for slope intercept equations, so I plugged in the x and y.
1=2(3)+b; 1=6+b, subtract 6 on both sides and get -5=b.
I used the information to get y=2x-5.
Hope this isn’t too confusing! :)

What is an equation of the line, in point slope for, that passes though the given point and has the given slope? point:(7,3);slo
Airida [17]

Answer:

The equation of this line is y - 3 = 4/7(x - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, start with the base form of point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Now put the slope in for m and the two coordinates in for (x1, y1).

y - 3 = 4/7(x - 7)
