The animal shelter had a special on adoption rates for their dogs and cats. Each dog adoption fee was $75 and each cat adoption fee was $35. On Christmas Eve, the animal adopted out 8 total animals and brought in $400 in total adoption fees. How many dogs and how many cats were adopted out on Christmas Eve?

cats:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 dogs and 5 cats were adopted out on Christmas eve.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of dogs adopted out on Christmas eve be x and the number of cats be y.

From the question,

On Christmas Eve, the animal adopted out 8 total animals

That is, x + y = 8 ...... (1)

and brought in $400 in total adoption fees.

Also from the question,

Each dog adoption fee was $75 and each cat adoption fee was $35.

∴ On Christmas Eve,

75x + 35y = 400 ...... (2)

Now, to determine how many dogs and how many cats were adopted out on Christmas Eve, we will solve the two equations simultaneously.

From equation (1)

x + y = 8

Make x the subject of the relation.

∴ x = 8 - y ...... (3)

Substitute the value of x into equation (2)

75(8 - y) + 35y = 400

600 - 75y + 35y = 400

600 -40y = 400

600 - 400 = 40y

200 = 40y

∴ 40y = 200

y = 200/40

y = 5

Substitute the value of y into equation (3)

x = 8 - y

x = 8 - 5

x = 3

∴ x = 3 and y = 5

Hence, 3 dogs and 5 cats were adopted out on Christmas eve.

There are 12 runners in marathon and all runners have equal chance of winning. What is the probability that a person may win a bet on the race if he has to correctly select the top 3 runners and
the order they finish in?
a) 1/1320 b) 1/1728
c) 3/1728 d) 1/12
kindly solve it using permutation technique

Answers

Answer:

A) 1/1320

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there are 12 runners in the race. Of these 12 people, one of them will get first place. In other words, 12 people have a chance of getting first place. Now there are 11 people remaining to get second place. Since one of the twelfth came first place, there are now 11 runners remaining to get second place. Finally, there are 10 people remaining. Since two of the 12 people came first and second, there are 10 people remaining who can get third place. So if a person was to correctly select the top 3 runners, then he would have a chance of 1/1320. You get this by multiplying 10, 11,12. You get 1320. since you have to pick one combination of 1st,2nd, and 3rd, the answer is A.

Find the slope between the points (3, 0) and (5, 4).
A. 2
B. 12
C. 4

Answers

Answer: I would say A tbh thank you

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of two points on the line, use the slope formula to determine the slope of the line.

The slope between the points (3, 0) and (5, 4) exists 2.

What is meant by slope of the equation?

Given the coordinates of two points on the line, use the slope formula to determine the slope of the line.

The slope formula, or the ratio of the change in the y values to the change in the x values, is

[tex]$m=\frac{y_ 2-y _1}{x _2-x _1}$$[/tex]

where [tex]$(x _1, y_ 1)$[/tex]and [tex]$(x_ 2, y _2)$[/tex] are two points that lie on the line.

Let the points be [tex]&(x _1, y _1)[/tex] = (3, 0) and [tex]$&(x _2, y _2)[/tex] = (5, 4)

The equation be [tex]$m=\frac{y_ 2-y _1}{x _2-x _1}$$[/tex]

substitute the values in the above equation, we get

[tex]$m=\frac{4-0}{5-3}=\frac{4}{2} \\[/tex]

The slope between the points (3, 0) and (5, 4) exists 2.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A. 2.

Consider the completer question is "Find the derivative [tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}[/tex] for [tex]y=\dfrac{x^2-4x}{x^3-5}[/tex]."

To find:

The derivative [tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}[/tex].

Solution:

Chain rule: [tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}f(g(x))=f'(g(x))\cdot g'(x)[/tex]

Quotient rule: [tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{g(x)f'(x)-f(x)g'(x)}{[g(x)]^2}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]y=\dfrac{x^2-4x}{x^3-5}[/tex]

Differentiate with respect to x.

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\dfrac{x^2-4x}{x^3-5}\right)[/tex]

Using chain rule and quotient rule, we get

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{(x^3-5)\dfrac{d}{dx}(x^2-4x)-(x^2-4x)\dfrac{d}{dx}(x^3-5)}{(x^3-5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{(x^3-5)(2x-4)-(x^2-4x)(3x^2)}{(x^3-5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{2x^4-4x^3-10x+20-3x^4+12x^3}{(x^3-5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{-x^4+8x^3-10x+20}{(x^3-5)^2}[/tex]

Therefore, the required answer is [tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{-x^4+8x^3-10x+20}{(x^3-5)^2}[/tex].

A beetle that Hannah observed was too small to draw at its actual size. Hannah decided to make a scale drawing of the beetle as shown above. The beetle in the drawing is 7.62 cm long and 3.81 cm wide. The scale factor of her drawing is 3. Part A: Find the actual length of the beetle Hannah observed. Show all work. Part B: Find the actual width of the beetle Hannah observed. Show all work. Part C: The actual length of each of the beetle's antennae is 0.2 cm. What is the size of each antenna on Hannah's scale drawing? Show all work.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Actual\ Length = 2.54\ cm[/tex]

[tex]Actual\ Width = 1.27\ cm[/tex]

[tex]Scale\ Length = 0.6\ cm[/tex] --- Beetle's antennae

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The following scale measurements

[tex]Length = 7.62cm[/tex]

[tex]Width = 3.81cm[/tex]

[tex]Scale\ Factor = 3[/tex]

Solving (a): The actual length.

We simply divide the scale length by the scale factor.

[tex]Actual\ Length = \frac{Scale\ Length}{Scale\ Factor}[/tex]

[tex]Actual\ Length = \frac{7.62cm}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Actual\ Length = 2.54\ cm[/tex]

Solving (b): The actual width.

We simply divide the scale width by the scale factor.

[tex]Actual\ Width = \frac{Scale\ Width}{Scale\ Factor}[/tex]

[tex]Actual\ Width = \frac{3.81\ cm}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Actual\ Width = 1.27\ cm[/tex]

Solving (c):

Given: Actual Length of the beetle's antennae is 0.2 cm.

Required: Determine the scale measurement.

This is solved using:

[tex]Actual\ Length = \frac{Scale\ Length}{Scale\ Factor}[/tex]

[tex]0.2\ cm = \frac{Scale\ Length}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Scale\ Length = 0.2cm * 3[/tex]

[tex]Scale\ Length = 0.6\ cm[/tex]

Mr Mason asks 240 year 11 students what they want to do next year. 15% of the students want to go to college. ¾ of the students want to stay at school. The rest of the students do not know. Work out the number of students who do not know.

Answers

Answer:

Number of students who do not know = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Year II students = 240

15% of the students want to go to college.

Number of year II students who wants to go to college = 15% of 240

= 15/100 × 240

= 0.15 × 240

= 36

¾ of the students want to stay at school.

Number of students who wants to stay at the school = 3/4 × 240

= (3 × 240) / 4

= 720 / 4

= 180

Number of students who do not know = Total year II students - Number of year II students who wants to go to college - Number of students who wants to stay at the school

= 240 - 36 - 180

= 24

Number of students who do not know = 24
