4y - 20.......u need to find a common factor that can go into 4y and 20.....the only common factor is 4. So u can factor that out.....4 goes into 4 one time (but do not forget the y) and 4 goes into 20 five times....4(y - 5)
4(y - 5)...u can also check ur answer by distributing the 4 through the parenthesis and getting 4 * y - 4 * 5 = 4y - 20
Answer:
The green would take 4 and the blue would take 16 times respectivly. I did it by finding the volumes of the cups in terms of pi, then dividing it by the volume of the sink.
Step-by-step explanation:
So the volume of the whole half sphere is 512pi.
Now we have to find the volumes of the cup.
Equation: 
Blue cup:

It would take 16 times to drain it completly.
Green cup:

It would take 4 times to drain it completly.
Answer:
36 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to think backwards to solve this question.
(8 - 2) x 2 = 12
(12 - 2) x 2 = 20
(20 - 2) x 2 = 36
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale is depending on the size of each cat. Lets say the larger cat is A and the smaller one is B. The scale factor from B to A is 1.75 (or 3.5/2)
when solving for scale factor you divide the original drawing and scale drawing. Original is denominator, Scale is Numerator.
