Answer:

There are 66 number of dogs in Miss Mulero's backyard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up equation for the given information.

Let there are 'd' number of dogs

and 'c' number of cats.

So, we can set up equation as

d+c=124

d=c+8

Let's solve the system of equations for 'd' and 'c'.

Substitute d as c+8 into the first equation then solve for 'c'

c+8+c=124

Combine like terms

2 c+8=124

Subtract both sides 8

2 c = 116

Divide both sides by 2.

c= 58

Plug in c as 58 into d=c+8

d=58+8

d=66

So, there are 66 number of dogs in Miss Mulero's backyard.

How can you use an equation to make a prediction from a pattern?
Vanyuwa [196]
Upon formation of an equation from a given pattern, we know how the variables in the patter are related. Using the equation, we can find the value of one of the missing variables if the rest are known and also predict the values of the pattern at given conditions.
An example:
y = 2x + 5
if we are to predict the value of y at x = 3, we simply substitute 3 into x
y = 2(3) + 5
= 11

Find f(x) =32<br> f(x)=3x-1
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Given f(x)=32

So we can substitute 32 in place of 'x'

So, f(x)=3x-1

=    f(x)=3(32)-1

=    f(x)=96-1

=    f(x)=95

f(x)=3x-1 = 95

Mrs. King has 3 3/4 yards of fabric she uses 1 7/8 yards to create a blanket and 1/2 yard to make a pillow.how much fabric does
Mashcka [7]
  • Total number of fabric  Mrs. King has =  3\frac{3}{4} yards
  • Number of yards of fabric used for a blanket = 1\frac{7}{8} yards
  • Number of yards of fabric used to make a pillow = \frac{1}{2}  yards

  • To find the number of yards of fabrics Mrs. King has left, we apply the operations of Addition and Subtraction

  • Step 1 : Addition Operation

Total number of fabrics used by Mrs. King = Fabric used for blanket + Fabric used for pillow

1\frac{7}{8} yards + \frac{1}{2} yards

= 2\frac{3}{8} yards

  • Step 2 : Subtraction Operation

Total number of yards of fabric left = Total number of fabrics - Total number of fabrics used

3\frac{3}{4}  yards - 2\frac{3}{8} yards

=  1\frac{3}{8}  yards

Kumar has twice the number of goals as Jacob. Make an algebraic expression. Plzzzz help
alekssr [168]

The algebraic expression is x = 2y where, "x" is the number of goals with Kumar and "y" is the number of goals with Jacob

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Kumar has twice the number of goals as Jacob

To find: algebraic expression

An algebraic expression is a mathematical expression that consists of variables, numbers and operations

<em><u>Let us first define the variables</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of goals with Kumar

Let "y" be the number of goals with Jacob

Then from given statement,

Number of goals with kumar = twice the number of goals as Jacob

Number of goals with kumar = 2(number of goals with Jacob)

x = 2y

Thus the algebraic expression is found
