Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting yards to feet means that we want the label of yards to cancel, leaving feet as our label. Use the factor-label method taught in chemistry.
The yards label cancels out, leaving feet as our label. So to answer the question, in order to convert from yards to feet you are multiplying by 3.
Y=36
it basically says y=(9-3)^2
which is y=6^2
which is then y=36
70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.
2 x 2.5 = 5 cups
Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.
By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.
Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.
Answer:
31.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Write out the problem.
6w-19 + k; w=8 and k=2
2. Figure out the first part of the problem.
So, if w=8 and 6 and w are next to each other, we should multiply 6*8, which is 48. Next, it says to subtract 19. 48-19=29.
3. Find out what the last part of the problem is.
Since the first part of the problem is 29 and k=2, we should add 29+2=31, which is the final answer.
Hope this helped :)
