A pet store owner, Byron, needs to determine how much food he needs to feed the animals. Byron knows that he needs to order the

same amount of bird food as hamster food. He needs four times as much dog food as bird food and needs half the amount of cat food as dog food. If Byron orders 600 packages of animal food, how much dog food does he buy? Let b represent the number of packages of bird food Byron purchased for the pet store.

Answer:

Bird food = 4*dog food

cat food  = 2 dog food

dog food = dog food

Total: bird food + cat food + dog food = 4+2 +1 = 600

dog food = 85.7 packages.

Number of dog food packages bought by Byron is 300

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given number of bird food packages = b. Find the number of packages for the other animal foods.

Number of hamster food packages = b.

Number of dog food packages = 4b

Number of cat food packages = 1/2 of 4b = 2b

Total food packages = 600

⇒ b + b + 4b + 2b = 600

⇒ 8b = 600

⇒ b = 600/8 = 75

  • Step 2: Calculate the amount of dog food

∴ 4b = 4 × 75 = 300

At eagle bay it cost $12 per hour to rent a Canoe Nate and his friends rented a canoe for 4 hours and paid $68. Write and solve
stich3 [128]

The cost to rent the canoe for 7 hours is $ 104

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

At eagle bay it cost $12 per hour to rent a Canoe

Nate and his friends rented a canoe for 4 hours and paid $68

Let "x" be the number of hours rented

We can solve use the point slope equation

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)

Where, "m" is the rate of change

(x_1, y_1) is the sample point

From given,

m = 12

(x_1, y_1) = (4, 68)

Therefore,

y - 68 = 12(x-4)

y - 68 = 12x -48\\\\y = 12x -48+68\\\\y = 12x + 20

Thus the linear equation is found

Here, "y" represents the amount paid for "x" hours

<em><u>Find the cost to rent the canoe for 7 hours</u></em>

Substitute x = 7 in linear equation

y = 12(7) + 20

y = 84 + 20

y = 104

Thus cost to rent the canoe for 7 hours is $ 104

Answer:

Time required to make a pile of 45 sticks next to their fire = 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of arithmetic progression.

First term = 5 - 3 + 7 = 9 sticks

Common difference = 7 - 3 = 4 sticks.

So the number of sticks next to their fire is increasing like this

        9, 13, 17, 21 .............

n^{th} term of AP = a + (n-1) d, we need to find n

  a + (n-1) d = 45

  9 + (n-1) x 4 = 45

  (n-1) x 4 = 36

   n - 1 = 9

    n = 10

Time required to make a pile of 45 sticks next to their fire = 10 minutes
