Answer:

They have 83 dogs and 50 birds.

There are 133 animals in total in the shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's call the dogs D and the birds B.

D = 25% + B

What ever the amount of animals, the total for D must always be 25% more than B.

To get 100% of the animals, B must equal 37.5% and D must equal 62.5%.

The way I worked this out was:

100% - 25%= 75%

75% divided by 2= 37.5%

37.5% + 25%= 62.5%

And just to check

37.5% + 62.5% = 100%

So to work out 100%:

37.5% = 50

divide both by 37.5 to get 1%

1% = 1.333333

time both by 62.5 to get 62.5%

62.5% = 83.333313

We'll round that answer because I'm pretty sure they don't have a .333313th of a dog.

So D = 62.5% = 83

They have 83 dogs and 50 birds.

Phew! That was the hard part. Now onto something wayyy easier.

To get the total number of animals in the shelter we just do 83 + 50, which is 133.

There are 133 animals in total in the shelter.

Hope this helps you :)

<h3>Answer:</h3>

length: 7 ft

width: 5 ft

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Your familiarity with times tables tells you that 35 = 5×7. Checking, you find that 7 = 3×5 - 8, so you know that these values (5, 7) are the width and length of the rectangle (in feet).

Help! giving 13 points!
Shtirlitz [24]
To determine the perimeter of the triangle given the vertices, calculate the distances between pair of points. For the first pair (-5,1) and (1,1), the distance is 6. For the next pair, (1,1) and (1, -7), the distance is 8. Lastly, for the pair of points (-5,1) and (1, -7), the distance is 10. Adding all the distance will give the perimeter of the triangle. Thus, the perimeter is 24.

What is the order of steps to calculate the volume of a prism
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

volume of a triangular prism: use the equation V = ½ × length × width × height, or V = the area of the base × the height and that might work with many shapes. Find the area of the base: ½ × the length and width then locate the height, and multiply the height by the area of the base.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps!

valkas [14]
<span> For this case we have the following equation:
</span> c (x) = 15x + 12000&#10;
<span> Where,
 x: number of chips
 c (x): total cost
 To find the fixed cost, we must find the intersection with the y axis of the given equation.
 So we have that for x = 0:
</span> c (0) = 15 (0) + 12000&#10;&#10;c (0) = 12000<span>
 Therefore, the fixed production cost is given by:
</span> c (0) = 12000&#10;
<span> Answer:
 The fixed cost of producing the chips is:
 c (0) = 12000</span>
