Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate DG using the distance formula

d = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2 -y_{1} } )^2$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = D (8, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = G (- 4, 3 )

DG = $\sqrt{(-4-8)^2+(3-3))^2}$

= $\sqrt{(-12)^2+0^2}$

= $\sqrt{144+0}$

= $\sqrt{144}$

= 12

Gary buys a 3 1/2 pound bag of cat food every 3 weeks. Gary feeds his cat the same amount of food each day. Which expression can

Valentin [98]

One expression that Gary can use,where y is the amount of food eaten in a year and x the amount of food eaten in a weeks is:
y=x*52

but we actually know that the cats eat one third of 3 1/2 pounds, that is:

$3\frac{1}{2} * \frac{11}{2} = \frac{7*1}{2*2}= \frac{7}{4}$

So we can substitute this:
y= $\frac{7}{4}*52$

which is y=7*13=91

So we actually know that the cats eat 91 pounds of food a year!
