Answer:

9 puppies can be fed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A dog is fed 312 cups of food.
A puppy is fed 35 of that.

To Find:

How much is the puppy fed?

Let us assume:

x puppies can be fed.

Finding the number of puppy:

Puppy : Food = Puppy : Food

⟶ 35 : 1 = 312 : x

⟶ 35/1 = 312/x

Cross multiplication.

⟶ 35x = 312

⟶ x = 312/35

⟶ x = 9 (approx.)

Hence,

9 puppies can be fed.

What is 3x²+5x+25 when x equals 3

Ksivusya [100]

Answer: 67

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + 5x + 25

x = 3

3(3)^2 + 5(3) + 25

3^2 = 9

3(9) + 5(3) + 25

3 * 9 = 27

27 + 5(3) + 25

5 * 3 = 15

27 + 15 + 25

27 + 15 = 42

42 + 25 = 67
