Answer:

20 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportion has to be setup to answer this

5/4 = 25/x

x represents the missing number of cats

This fraction represents the relationship amongst dogs and cats

----

To solve cross multiply

5x = 100

(let me down below if you need an explanation on how to cross multiply)

Divide both sides by 5 in order to get the variable by itself

100/5 = 20

x = 20

The shelter has 20 cats

1) 5 cups of yellow paint; because if 10 cups of yellow paint are used for 2 cups of blue paint, then you would use 5 cups of yellow paint to even out the pigment of one cup of blue.
2) 3 cups of blue paint, and 15 cups of yellow paint
3) 5 cups of yellow for every cup of blue paint
4) for every cup of blue paint 5 cups of yellow are used to get the same shade of green

Emma is taking out a loan in the amount of $25,000. Her choices for the loan are a 60-month loan at 5% annual simple interest an
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The answer is $2750. Which is the difference in the amount of interest Emma would have to pay for these two loans

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest=( P× r × t)/100

60 months is converted to 5years(60/12=5)

Interest= (25000 × 5 × 5) /100

= $6250

72months is converted to 6 years(72/12=6 Years)

Interest=( P× r × t)/100

= (25000 × 6 × 6)/100

=$ 9000

The difference in the interest= $9000- $6250

= $ 2750

Answer:

to find the distance between two points, in order to find the length of the triangle we need first to find the instance between the two points

distance between (2,9) and (2,4) .....a =5

distance between (2,4) and (6,4) .....b = 4

when we find the length of the side of the triangle , then we can apply the Pythagorean theorem to find hyp. c

How can you tell that a system of linear equations will have infinitely many solutions without computation?
Contact [7]

If you can manipulate the two equations so that they have exactly the same coefficients (e. g., 3x + 4y = 8 and 2x + 4y = 8), then you conclude that the two lines coincide (overlap), and that there are thus infinitely many solutions.
