<h3>Answer: 81</h3>

Work Shown:

x = number of cats

(4 cats)/(5 dogs) = (x cats)/(45 dogs)

4/5 = x/45

4*45 = 5x

180 = 5x

5x = 180

x = 180/5

x = 36

There are 36 cats and x+45 = 36+45 = 81 cats and dogs total.

You purchase 26 “parking hours” that you can use over the next month to park your food truck at the fair. Weekday hours costs $2

Oksanka [162]

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

weekday hours x*2

weekend hours y*10

x+y=26

2x+10y=220

----------------------

x=26-y

2(26-y)+10y=220

52-2y+10y=220

8y=220-52

8y=168

y=168/8

y=21

x=26-21=5

x=5

AlekseyPX

Answer:

It is a case of classical probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are selecting a number between 1 and 100 randomly which is divisible by 14 the only favorable cases are 14,28,42,56,70,84,98 which are 7 cases out of 100 total numbers thus the required probability becomes

$P(E)=\frac{7}{100}=0.07$
