70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.
2 x 2.5 = 5 cups
Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.
By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.
Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.

11% increase = every year =0.11
present year = <span>15,000 x 0.11^16

-4 for the first one and 2/3 for the second
Answer
13 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
8:3 is the ratio which means that you multiply that (8x3) is 24 - 11 because 2/9/ 2+9 = 11 and 24-11 is 13 so there is your answer
