Let the weight of Paula's dog be x
Let the weight of Carla's dog be y
We know that the weight of Paula's dog is 3 times that of Carla's dog, therefore:
x = 3y ...........> equation I
We also know that the sum of the weights is 48 pounds, therefore:
x + y = 48 ............> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II:
3y + y = 48
4y = 48
y = 12 pouds
Substitute with the value of y in equation I:
x = 3(12) = 36 pounds
Based on the above calculations:
Paula's dog weighs 36 pounds
Carla's dog weighs 12 pounds
Answer:
B. 5/144
5 can't go in 144 evenly. so its leading to 5/144
You are wrong.
1, 2, 3 and 4 are correct.
5. 75%
6 is also correct
7. 100%
8. 50%
Is this vocabulary? If so, I'll try to answer. The product is always greater than the factors.
They can NOT. A right angle is 90°. An obtuse angle is greater than 90°. All the angles in a triangle must add up to exactly 180°. If two angles are greater than 90° then they will add up to greater than 180, beacuse 90 plus 90 equals 180. You cannot have a triangle with two obtuse angles because they will add up to greater than 180°.
