Sammy's rabbit can eat 70 pounds of food in 80 days. Part A: At that same rate, how much food will Sammy need to feed his rabbit

in 24 days? Part B: How long will it take his rabbit to eat 87.5 pounds of food? Part C: Suppose Sammy buys his rabbit a companion. Together, the rabbits need can eat 95 pounds of food in 65 days. Approximately how much food will Sammy need to buy in order to feed both rabbits inl year ( 365 daya)? Round to the nearest tenth.​

Part A

The rabbit can eat 70 pounds of food in 80 days. The unit rate is 70/80 = 0.875 pounds of food per day. Multiply this with the 24 days to get the total amount eaten over that timespan.

24*0.875 = 21

<h3>Answer:  21 pounds of food</h3>

=========================================================

Part B

x = number of days

The rabbit eats at a unit rate of 0.875 pounds per day. After x number of days pass by, the rabbit has eaten a total of 0.875x pounds of food. Set this equal to 87.5 and solve for x.

0.875x = 87.5

x = (87.5)/(0.875)

x = 100

<h3>Answer: 100 days</h3>

=========================================================

Part C

This is is similar to part A, just with different numbers. We could follow those steps to get the answer, but I'll go another route.

Instead, I'll use a proportion to solve.

(95 pounds)/(65 days) = (x pounds)/(365 days)

95/65 = x/365

95*365 = 65*x

34675 = 65x

65x = 34675

x = 34675/65

x = 533.461538

x = 533.5

<h3>Answer: 533.5 pounds of food</h3>

Answer:

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 12 \sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify the radical expression:

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}

We write √6 as √(2*3).

This implies that:

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 4 \sqrt{2 \times 3}   \times  \sqrt{3}

We now split the radical for √(2*3) to get:

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 4 \sqrt{2}  \times  \sqrt{3}  \times  \sqrt{3}

We obtain a perfect square at the far right.

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 4 \sqrt{2}  \times  (\sqrt{3} )^{2}

This simplifies to

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 4 \sqrt{2}  \times 3

This gives us:

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 4 \times 3 \sqrt{2}

and finally, we have:

4 \sqrt{6}  \times  \sqrt{3}  = 12 \sqrt{2}

Solve -9.4 &gt; 1.7x + 4.2. I need this ASAP
Marat540 [252]

Hello.

We are solving -9.4 > 1.7x + 4.2.

First we need to swap sides:

1.7x + 4.2 = -9.4

Now we need to subtract 4.2 from both sides.

1.7x + 4.2 = -9.4

        -4.2 .  -4.2

Now let's combine -4.2 + 4.2 which is 0.

We get 1.7x < -9.4 - 4.2

Now let's divide both sides by 1.7

1.7x | -13.6

1.7     1.7

x < -13.6

      1.7

So we just divided to get x < -8.

HELP HELP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF YOU HELP ME
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the triangles to be similar, corresponding side must be in proportion.

So, FE/ZY = FD/ZX

      6/12 = (2x - 5)/22

6(22) = 12(2x - 5)

132 = 24x - 60

24x = 192

x = 8
