Answer:

25 dogs and 55 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

5/11 ratio, first add those up which you get 16

Then divide the total amount of animals by the ratio-80

80/16 = 5

(5*5)/(11*5)

25 dogs and 55 cats

Isabella is solving the equation 4x^2=13x-3 with the quadratic formula

laiz [17]

Answer:

x=(3,1/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Be sure to use the formula...

$-b + or - sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } / 2a$

- First, move all variables to one side (left) of the equation. You want one side to be equivalent to zero.

-Next, you need to find a, b, and c. This should be...

a=4

b=-13

c=3

- Knowing this, fill in these variable to go along with the formula. I cannot do this for you, as you should try it on your own. But, you should end up with the solution x= (3,1/4).

- Hope this helps! If you need a further explanation or help on any more problems please let me know, as I would be glad to help anytime.

Two students, Carlos and Sophie, factored the trinomial -4x2 − 10x + 6. Sophie factored it as -2(2x − 1)(x + 3) and Carlos facto

damaskus [11]

Sophie has factored the term completely while Carlos has not factored the term completely.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor the trinomial:

$-4x^2-10x + 6$

Factoring:

$-4x^2-10x + 6\\Taking\,\,-2\,\,common:\\-2(2x^2+5x-3)\\Now\,\,factoring:\\-2(2x^2+6x-x-3)\\-2(2x(x+3)-1(x+3))\\-2(2x-1)(x+3)$

So, the factored form of $-4x^2-10x + 6$ is $-2(2x-1)(x+3)$

So, Sophie has factored the term completely. The terms are factored when we cannot further simplify it. Since Carlos factored (x+3)(-4x+2) 2 can be taken common from the term (-4x+2) so, it is not factored completely.

A rectangle measures 2 4/ 5 inches by 1 1/ 5 inches. What is its area?

AlexFokin [52]

[ Answer ]

$\boxed{3\frac{9}{25} }$

[ Explanation ]

Area Of Rectangle: Length * Width

2 4/5 * 1 1/5

=======================

Convert Fractions Into Mixed Numbers:

2 4/5 = 14/5

1 1/5 = 6/5

Multiply Across:

14 * 6

5 * 5

= 84/ 25

Simplify:

3 9/25

$\boxed{[ \ Eclipsed \ ]}$

What is the slope of the line x + 6y= 12

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

x + 6y = 12

You want the y-value to be on one side of the equation, so you have to subtract the x-value from both sides.

6y = -x + 12

Next, you divide both sides by 6, so that the y-value will be by itself.

y = - $\frac{1}{6}$ + 2

We know that the slope or the 'm' value is located before the x-value based on y = mx +b, therefore the slope is - $\frac{1}{6}$
