Answer: x = 2,340 homes without children

There are 2,340 homes without children.

Step-by-step explanation:

'x' represent the number of homes without children

'y' represent the number of homes with children

x : y = 9 : 7

Since the total number of homes is 4160 means x + y = 4160.

From x + y = 4160 follows y = 4160 - x.

Plug y = 4160 - x into x : y = 9 : 7

x : (4160 - x) = 9 : 7

DOG A dog is leashed to the corner of a house. How much running area does the dog have? Explain how you found your answer.
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The area will be \frac{3\pi r^{2} }{4}  where r is the length of the leash.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is pi times the radius squared. One forth of that area is not available for the dog to run: its the corner of the house. so what's left is 3/4 of the area of the circle. (3/4)πr²

Since the length of the leash is not given in the question, no specific Area can be answered. Once that value is substituted for r, the actual area can be calculated.
