Answer:

Cats = 34

Dogs = 37

birds = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

c = cats

d = dogs

b = birds

from the question, the following equation can be gotten

d = 3 + c  eqn 1

b = c - 9   eqn 2

c + d + b = 96 eqn 3

substitute for b and d in equation 3

3 + c + c - 9 + c = 96

3c - 6 = 96

3c = 102

c = 34

Substitute for d in eqn 1

d = 3 + 34 = 37

Substitute for b in eqn 2

34 - 9 = 25

Write Y+2=1/3x in standard form
solong [7]

The standard form of a line is in the form

Ax + By = C

A, B and C are integers, and A is positive. Let's start with multiplying the whole equation by 3 to get rid of denominators:

3y+6=x

Subtract 3y from both sides:

6=x-3y

Which of course is equivalent to

x-3y=6

Which is the standard form, given the coefficients A=1, B=-3, C=6.

If f(x)=2x+1f(x)=2x+1f, left parenthesis, x, right parenthesis, equals, 2, x, plus, 1 and g(x)=x^2+7g(x)=x
nadya68 [22]

The value of the composite function f(g(x)) is 2x^2 + 15

<h3>How to evaluate the composite function f(g(x))?</h3>

The functions are given as:

f(x) = 2x + 1

g(x) = x^2 + 7

We have the function f(x) to be

f(x) = 2x + 1

Substitute g(x) for x in the equation f(x) = 2x + 1

So, we have

f(g(x)) = 2g(x) + 1

Substitute g(x) = x^2 + 7  in the equation f(g(x)) = 2x + 1

f(g(x)) = 2(x^2 + 7) + 1

Open the brackets

f(g(x)) = 2x^2 + 14 + 1

Evaluate the sum

f(g(x)) = 2x^2 + 15

Hence, the value of the composite function f(g(x)) is 2x^2 + 15

At a certain time of the day, a tree that is x meters tall casts a shadow that is x-49 meters long. If the distance from the top
nikklg [1K]

The height of the tree is 60 meters.

Explanation:

Let the height of the tree be x. The tree casts a shadow of x-49 meters and the distance from the top of the tree to the end of the shadow is x+1 meters.

The sides of the triangle are attached in the image below:

Using pythagoras theorem,

x^{2}+(x-49)^{2}=(x+1)^{2}

Expanding, we get,

2 x^{2}-98 x+2401=x^{2}+2 x+1

2 x^{2}-98 x+2400=x^{2}+2 x

2 x^{2}-100 x+2400=x^{2}

x^{2}-100 x+2400=0

Solving the equation using the quadratic formula x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}, we get,

x=\frac{-(-100)\pm\sqrt{(-100)^{2}-4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2400}}{2 \cdot 1}

Simplifying, we have,

x=\frac{100\pm\sqrt{10000-9600}}{2}

x=\frac{100\pm\sqrt{400}}{2}

x=\frac{100\pm{20}}{2}

Thus,

x=\frac{100+20}{2} \\x=\frac{120}{2} \\x=60  and  x=\frac{100-20}{2} \\x=\frac{80}{2} \\x=40

where the value x=40 is not possible because substituting the value x=40 in x-49 results in negative solution. Which is not possible.

Hence, the value of x is 60.

Thus, The height of the tree is 60 meters.
