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.
(Hint: Create a table or an equation to help answer the question. There ARE two steps that need to be taken before arriving at your answer.
A.250
B.300

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

Find the sequence.. <br> 1,2,2,4,8
AlladinOne [14]
Let the n-th term be called a_n

We see that if we choose a_0=1,a_1=2 then the other numbers follow the pattern a_{n+2}=a_{n+1}\cdot a_n (see :4=2*2,8=4*2)

Hence the sequence will be 1,2,2,4,8,32,256, 8192, 2097152, 17179869184,\dots

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (2,−4) that is parallel to the line y=3x+2
Naily [24]

Hey there! :)

Line passes through (2, -4) & parallel to y = 3x+ 2

Let's start off by identifying what our slope is. In the slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we know that "m" is our slope. "M" is simply a place mat so if we look at our given line, the "m" value is 3. Therefore, our slope is 3.

We should also note that we're looking for a line that's parallel to the given one. This means that our new line has the same slope as our given line. Therefore, our slope for our new line will be 3.

Now, we use point-slope form ( y-y₁=m(x-x₁) ) to complete our task of finding a line that passes through (2, -4) with a slope of 3.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Let's start by plugging in 3 for m (our slope), 2 for x1 and -4 for y1.

y - (-4) = 3(x - 2)

Simplify.

y + 4 = 3x - 6

Simplify by subtracting 4 from both sides.

y = 3x - 10

~Hope I helped!~
