a pet boarder keeps a dog to cat ratio of 5:2 is it a border has a room 98 animals and how many of them can be dogs

1 answer:

8 0

I'm not sure how the correct way to do this would be but if you have a ratio that is 5:2 think of it as having 5 groups of animals and 2 groups of animals.

Find the number by dividing the total amount of animals 98/7 = 14.

We know that there are 5 groups of cats, the ratio for 5 cats. 14 x 5 = 70.

The remainder is dogs, which has a ratio of 2:5. 14 x 2 = 28.

70 + 28 = 98.

Solve for x in the equation x2 + 4x-4=8.

iren [92.7K]

${x}^{2} + 4x - 4 = 8 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 4x - 4 - 8 = 0 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 4x - 12 = 0 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 6x - 2x - 12 = 0 \\ = > x(x + 6) - 2(x + 6) = 0 \\ = > (x - 2)(x + 6) = 0 \\ = > x = 2 \: \: \: or \: \: \: x = - 6$

2/5 of a number is 14. What's the number?

adelina 88 [10]

Let x be the number. By the given above, the relationship between the numbers and the newly-introduced variable is expressed as (2/5)(x) = 14. To determine the value of x, divide 14 by 2/5. This will give us the answer which is equal to 35. Hence, the answer to this item is 35.
