Answer:
3 dogs and 2 cats.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case we can solve it using a 2x2 system of equations, like this:
let x: number of cats
let y: number of dogs
So:
42.5 * x + 64 * y = 277
35.5 * x + 50.5 * y = 222.5 => x = (222.5 - 50.5 * y) /35.5
Replacing, we are left with that:
42.5 * (222.5 - 50.5 * y) /35.5 + 64 * y = 277
266.37- 60.45 * y + 64 * y = 277
64 * y - 60.45 * y = 277 - 266.37
3.55 * y = 10.63
y = 10.63 / 3.55
y = 2.99, about 3
Now to calculate x:
x = (222.5 - 50.5 * 3) /35.5
x = 2
Which means that it has a total of 3 dogs and 2 cats.
The width would be 10ft and the length would be 16ft
when you multiply 10 by 2 and 16 by 2 you get 20 and 32 and when those are added it gets 52
Hope that helps

Answer: 200+50m>1,250
Step-by-step explanation:
It starts with 200 so that is by itself. The m is added to the number that is changing every so often, in this case $50 a month. They need more than $1,250 so we use the greater than sign.
I'll talk you through it so you can see why it's true, and then
you can set up the 2-column proof on your own:
Look at the two pointy triangles, hanging down like moth-wings
on each side of 'OC'.
-- Their long sides are equal, OA = OB, because both of those lines
are radii of the big circle.
-- Their short sides are equal, OC = OC, because they're both the same line.
-- The angle between their long side and short side ... the two angles up at 'O',
are equal, because OC is the bisector of the whole angle there.
-- So now you have what I think you call 'SAS' ... two sides and the included angle of one triangle equal to two sides and the included angle of another triangle.
(When I was in high school geometry, this was not called 'SAS' ... the alphabet
did not extend as far as 'S' yet, and we had to call this congruence theorem
"broken arrow".)
These triangles are not congruent the way they are now, because one is
the mirror image of the other one. But if you folded the paper along 'OC',
or if you cut one triangle out and turn it over, it would exactly lie on top of
the other one, and they would be congruent.
So their angles at 'A' and at 'B' are also equal ... those are the angles that
you need to prove equal.
