Answer:
Let's set up an equation with x as the number of times 5 and 4 are being multiplied (remember that 5:4 is a ratio, we don't know how many dogs and cats there are, just that the ratio of dogs to cats is 5:4):
5x+4x=153
9x=153
x=17
4x=4⋅17=68
There are 85 dogs (5⋅17) and 68 cats (85:68=5:4)
Answer:
She estiamted the amount.
No she is not correct, she is incorrect. The correct answer would be that they would pay $38.40 for the item.

Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(7a + 3b)(7a + -3b) = 0
Multiply (7a + 3b) * (7a + -3b)
(7a * (7a + -3b) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0
((7a * 7a + -3b * 7a) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0
Reorder the terms:
((-21ab + 49a2) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0
((-21ab + 49a2) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0
(-21ab + 49a2 + (7a * 3b + -3b * 3b)) = 0
(-21ab + 49a2 + (21ab + -9b2)) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(-21ab + 21ab + 49a2 + -9b2) = 0
Combine like terms: -21ab + 21ab = 0
(0 + 49a2 + -9b2) = 0
(49a2 + -9b2) = 0
Solving
49a2 + -9b2 = 0
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '9b2' to each side of the equation.
49a2 + -9b2 + 9b2 = 0 + 9b2
Combine like terms: -9b2 + 9b2 = 0
49a2 + 0 = 0 + 9b2
49a2 = 0 + 9b2
Remove the zero:
49a2 = 9b2
Divide each side by '49'.
a2 = 0.1836734694b2
Simplifying
a2 = 0.1836734694b2
take the square root of each side:
a = {-0.428571429b, 0.428571429b}
For what values of b is f(x) = b^x an increasing function?
