Answer:

10 families have cats

25 families have dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of ratio units is 5-2 = 3. The difference in pet counts is 15, so we can see that each ratio unit stands for 15/3 = 5 pets. Then ...

 dogs : cats = 5 : 2 = (5·5) : (2·5) = 25 : 10

There are 10 families with cats and 25 families with dogs.

Solve the system y = -x + 7 and y = -0.5(x - 3)2 + 8<br> I'll mark the brainliest!!!!!!!!!
hram777 [196]

Answer:

(1, 6)

(7, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x + 7

y = -0.5(x - 3)² + 8

-x + 7 = -0.5(x - 3)² + 8

-x + 7 = -0.5(x² - 6x + 9) + 8

-x + 7 = -0.5x² + 3x - 4.5 + 8

       0 = -0.5x² + 4x - 3.5

       0 = x² - 8x + 7

       0 = (x - 7)(x - 1)

x - 7 = 0 or x - 1 = 0    

x = 1 or 7

PLEASE HELP ME! THIS ASSIGNMENT WAS DUE YESTERDAY!!
djyliett [7]

Answer:

700$ at 2% 800$ at 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=1500 This is because the total is 1500 dollars into 2 different accounts, x and y.

0.02x+0.04y=44 This is because it says 2 percent interest in one account and 4 percent in the other, and the totals add up to 44 dollars.

Now use elimination method.

x+y=1500(-0.02)=-0.02x+-0.02y=-30

0.02x+0.04y=44

Now you end up with 0.02y=14, solve for y and you get 700. That's the value of y which now you can then subtract from 1500 and get 800 which is the value of x.
