The ratio of dogs to cats is 2 to 3. There are 15 pets total. How many dogs are there? How many cats are there?

1 answer:

6 0

So there are 2 dogs to every 3 cats (put into words)

in order to reach 15 total multiply both 2 and 3 by 3

2x3 = 6
3x3 = 9

so there are 6 dogs and 9 cats

Answer:

C = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

C = 5/9 (F - 32)

C = 5/9 ( - 22 - 32)

C = 5/9 ( -54)

C = -30

For this case, what we must do is find the scale factor.
We have then that the scale factor is given by:
$k = \frac{L1}{L2}$
Where,
L1: side length of polygon ABCD
L2: side length of polygon PQRS
Note: both sides belong to the same side of each polygon
Substituting the values we have:
$k = \frac{6}{12}$
Rewriting we have:
$k = \frac{1}{2}$
Answer:
The scale factor of dilation is given by:
$k = \frac{1}{2}$

25 POINTS PLEASE HELP ME!! Sam conjectures that for x ≤ - 2, it is true that x^5 + 7 > x^3. Is Sam’s conjecture correct? Why

CaHeK987 [17]

The true statement about Sam’s conjecture is that the conjecture is not correct

<h3>How to determine if Sam’s conjecture is correct or not?</h3>

Sam’s conjecture is given as:

For x ≤ - 2

It is true that x^5 + 7 > x^3.

The inequality x ≤ - 2 means that the highest value of x is -2

Assume the value of x is -2, then we have:

(-2)^5 + 7 > (-2)^3

Evaluate the exponents

-32 + 7 > -8

Evaluate the sum

-25 > -8

The above inequality is false because -8 is greater than -25 i.e. -8 > -25 or -25 < -8

Hence, the true statement about Sam’s conjecture is that the conjecture is not correct
