The vet told Jake that his dog, Kevin, who weighed 78 pounds, needed to lose 14 pounds. Jake started walking Kevin every day and changed the amount of food he was feeding him. Kevin lost 1.5 pounds in the first week. Jake wants to follow the vet's advice. So, how many weeks, w, will it take Kevin to lose the weight in pounds, p.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It will take approximately 9.3 weeks for Kevin to lose the

Step-by-step explanation:

current weight  of Dog = 78 pounds

Required weight to be shed off = 14 pounds

weight lost in 1 week = 1.5 pounds

Let the number of weeks required to lose 14 pounds be w.

Assuming that the rate of weight loss per week is constant

(weight lost in 1 week) × (number of weeks) = 14 pounds

1.5 × w = 14

w = 14 ÷ 1.5 = 9.3 weeks

Therefore it will take approximately 9.3 weeks for Kevin to lose the weight

If a dozen cookies cost $18, what is the cost for 18 cookies

Answers

What i did is. First i divided the cost of a dozen. And i took of a dozen of 18 (your cookies) and was left with 6 cookies. i also was left with 9 after dividing so if you add 6+9 so your answer is 15

Answer: For 18 cookies, the cost is 27 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given that:

a dozen cookies cost $18

And we have to find how many 18 cookies cost. We can solve this problem by finding the ratio, or fraction of dollars per cookie or cookie per dollars.

12 cookies             6                    2

----------------   =    -----------   =  -------------    So this means 2 cookies per 3 dollars.

18 dollars                9                   3

Now if you increase the numerator by 9 (the numerator is cookies) and you find that there are 18 cookies, then how much money is there to pay?

This can be found by increasing the denom. by 9 as well:

3  x   9  =  27

So then the cost is 27 dollars, and that is how much you have to pay.

You use the equation $y=0.18x$ to calculate the tip $y$ (in dollars) that you add to a bill for $x$ dollars. a. Solve the equation for $x$ . The rewritten equation is $x=$ . b. Find the amount of the bill (not including tip) when your tip is $4.95. The bill is $\$$ .

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation y = 0.18x, to solve for x, we will make the variable x as the subject of the formula from the equation given.

From the equation y = 0.18x

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x i.e 0.18

y/0.18 = 0.18x/0.18

y/0.18 = x

Hence the function of the variable x = y/0.18

b) Given the amount of the bill as y and x is the tip in dollars.

Given  y = $4.95, we are to substitute the value of y = $4.95 into the resulting function in (a) to get x as shown;

Since x = y/0.18

x = $4.95/0.18

x = $27.5

Hence the bill is  $27.5

Corrected Question:

The length of a rectangle is (t – 8) units, and its width is (t + 11) units. Which expression can represent the area of the rectangle?

Answer:

t² + 3t - 88

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rectangle of;

length = (t - 8) units

width = (t + 11) units

The area A of a rectangle is given by;

A  = length x width ----------------------------------(i)

Substitute the given length and width into equation (i) as follows;

A = (t - 8) x (t + 11)    [expand the brackets]

A = t² -8t + 11t - 88

A = t² + 3t - 88

Therefore, the area is

(t² + 3t - 88) square units

A square sandbox has an area of 75 square feet. Estimate the length of one of the sides of the
sandbox. Round to the nearest tenths place.

Answers

Answer:

8.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a square has equal side lengths, the formula for area is s^2, where s stands for side. Since we are given the area, s^2=75 square feet. Take the square root of both sides to get s is equivalent to the square root of 75 square feet. When this becomes a decimal, it is 8.66 feet. Since we are supposed to round to the nearest tenths, it rounds up to 8.7 feet per side length

You are at a family reunion and the cooler contains ten bottles of soda; four Sprite, three Dr. Pepper, and three Cherry Coke. Three times, you randomly pick up a drink for your grandmother. The first time, you get a Cherry Coke. The second and third times, you get Dr. Pepper. What is the probability of getting Dr. Pepper the fourth time and then an Cherry Coke the fifth time without replacement?

Answers

Answer:

Probability of getting Dr. Pepper the fourth time = [tex]\frac{1}7[/tex]

Probability of getting a cherry coke the fifth time = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Combined probability = [tex]\frac{1}{21}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]

It is given that first time a Cherry coke is chosen and it is not replaced.

So, number of cherry coke left = 2

Dr. Pepper is chosen twice and is not replaced, so

Number of Dr. Pepper left = 3 - 2 = 1

Total number of soda left = 10 - 3 = 7

So, probability of getting Dr. Pepper the fourth time = [tex]\frac{1}7[/tex]

Now, total number of soda left = 7 - 1 = 6

Probability of getting a cherry coke the fifth time = [tex]\frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

The combined probability = probability of getting Dr. Pepper the fourth time multiplied with Probability of getting a cherry coke the fifth time

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}7 \times \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{21}[/tex]

2π is not a rational number (we cannot express pi as a fraction exactly even though there are some close approximations)

2.2121... is also a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction (21/99, or 7/33 simplified)

Mistake: 9x - x is 8x not 9x

2). 2(x + 5)
