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

grin007 [14]
Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -56
(8,-4)...x1 = 8 and y1 = -4
now we sub...pay close attention to ur signs
y - (-4) = -56(x - 8)....not finished yet

You get (2x+3)(4x^2-6x+9) when you factor 8x^3+27=0. You just divide by 3 to simplify it.
