Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to list some equations. Letting variable d stand for dogs and p stand for parrots, we have:

d+p=40 (The number of dogs plus the number of parrots equals 40)

4d+2p=130 (Each dog has 4 legs and each parrot has 2 legs and they have 130 legs in total)

With this system of equations, we can quickly solve it for d and p.

Subtract:

 4d+2p=130

- d+p=40

_________

3d+p=90,

p=90-3d

Substitution:

d+(90-3d)=40

90-2d=40

-2d=-50

d=25

Substitution to get p:

p+25=40

p=15

There you have it! There are 25 dogs and 15 parrots. To check our work,

25+15=40

4(25)+2(15)=100+30=130

I hope this helped! :)

Answer: There are 32 dogs and 1 Parrot

Step-by-step explanation: I had a question like this in a math class. What you first do is to recognize that- parrots have 2 legs and dogs have 4. We can do 130/2 = 65 and 130/4= 32.5. Now we know that if there was only one animal, there would be 65 parrots, and 32 dogs- one with half of the legs. Since there is a .5 for the dogs, if we put in one parrot, it would mean that there is exactly 130.

(32 x 4)+(2x1) = 130.  There are 32 dogs and 1 Parrot. I hope this answer is ✅ and helps, i just joined the community and this is the first person I answered. Good Luck!!

Given an initial quantity Q0=150 and a growth rate of 7% per unit time, give a formula for the quantity Q as a function of time
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

(a)

Since growth quantity is not continuous

Q(t) = 150 (1.07)^t

For t = 10

Q(10) = 150 (1.07)^{10}

\mathbf{Q(10) = 295.073}

(b)

Here, for a continuous growth rate, the growth quantity can be computed in terms of initial quantity and the growth rate.

i.e.

Q(t) = 150 e^{0.07t}

At t = 10 for a continuous growth rate;

Q(10) = 150 e^{0.07  \times 10}

Q(10) = 150 e^{0.7}

\mathbf{Q(10) = 302.063}
