Answer:

There were 16 birds  at the shelter on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cats and birds on Wednesday = 34

let the number of birds on Wednesday = b

Then number of cats = (34 -b)

The rate of taking care of each bird in shelter = $3

The rate of taking care of each cat in shelter = $7

Total amount spent by shelter on Wednesday = $174

So, according to the question

b x ($3)  +  (34 -b) ($7) =  $ 174

or,  3b + 238 - 7b = 174

or, 4b = 64

⇒ b = 64/4 = 16

Hence, the number of birds in shelter on Wednesday = b = 16

and  Number of cats = 34 - 16 = 18

Find the area of the figure. 7 cm 4 cm 4 cm 1 10 cm 10 cm 8 cm 19 cm
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

132cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

first break the shape up into component shapes. the shape is made of two rectangles and two triangles. the area for a rectangle is A=BH where b is base and h is height. the area of a right triangle is BH/2 where b is the base and h is the height. you are given the base and height of the top rectangle 4x7. To find the area of the triangles and the second rectangle you have to do some algebra. the total base length is 19cm and the top rectangle has a length of 7cm so 19-7 leaves you with 12cm to spare and there is two symmetric triangles on each side so 12/2 is 6. now we know all the measurements and can solve.

In the diagram below, AB and TC are tangent to 0. Which equation could be solved to find x, the measure of AC?
LekaFEV [45]

The  equation that could be solved to find x, the measure of AC is 58 = 1/2(238 -x)

<h3>Circle theorem</h3>

The given diagram shows two intersecting lines tangential to a circle at points A and C.

Using the theorem that states, the measure of the angle at the vertex is equal to the half of the difference of the measure of the intercepted arcs.

Mathematically;

<B = 1/2(arcADC - arcAC)

58 = 1/2(238 -x)

Hence the  equation that could be solved to find x, the measure of AC is 58 = 1/2(238 -x)
