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)

What is the slope for 1.(4,9) & (1,6)
Semenov [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.(4,9) & (1,6)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=6-9/1-4

m=-3/-3

m= 1

2.(5,3) & (5,-9)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=(-9)-3/5-5

m=-12/0

3.(2,1) & (8,9)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=9-1/8-2

m=8/6

m= 4/3

4.(14,-8) & (7,-6)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=(-6)-(-8)/7-14

m=2/-7

m= -2/7

5.(4,-3) & (8,-3)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=(-3)-(-3)/8-4

m=0/4

m=0

6.(-11,1) & (-2,6)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=6-1/(-2)-(-11)

m=5/9

I have tried so hard and I cant figure thus out. The. entire problem needs to be finished, this is worth 20 points.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

No the ramp doesn’t meet the law. The slope is 4/50 which is 1/12.5

The slope of the ramp doesn’t meet the law because it’s slope is greater than 1/12. To adjust the ramp so that it meets the law, you could increase the height and/or the horizontal length to increase the slope so it is less than 1/12.
