Y-y1=m(x-x1)
find slope
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
so
(-4,-1)
(3,-3)
slope=(-3-(-1))/(3-(-4))=(-3+1)/(3+4)=-2/7
y-(-1)=-2/7(x-(-4))
y+1=-2/7(x+4)
Shelters found for dogs = 12,308
Shelters found for cats = 7,953
Total number of shelters found
= Shelters found for dogs + Shelters found for cats
= 12,308 + 7,953
= 20,261 shelters
Therefore, the total number of shelter found for both dogs and cats last year is 20,261 shelters
Answer:
D. 3,750
Step-by-step explanation:
Use proportions to solve:
125/500 = x/15000
Cross multiply:
125*15000 = 1,875,000
1,875,000/500 = 3,750
x = 3,750
