Answer:

21% of the animals are female

Step-by-step explanation:

In total:

There are 40 + 60 = 100 animals.

Female animals.

40 dogs. Of those, 15% are female. So 0.15*40 = 6.

60 cats. Of those, 25% are female. So 0.25*60 = 15.

21 female animals.

21/100 = 0.21 = 21%

21% of the animals are female

Is it possible to place 158 books on three shelves so that the first shelf has 8 less books than the second and 5 more books tha
Lisa [10]
Let
x-----------------> books in <span>the first shelf
</span>y-----------------> books in the second shelf
z-----------------> books in the third shelf
we know that
x+y+z=158-------------> equation (1)
x=y-8---------> y=x+8 ------->  equation (2)
x=z+5--------> z=x-5  --------> equation (3)
<span>
 substitute (2) and (3) in (1)
</span>x+(x+8)+(x-5)=158--------> 3x=155----------> x=51.7


<span>the number of books in the first shelf (x=51.7) is not a whole number
therefore

the answer is
Is not possible to place the amount of 158 books in the amounts indicated in the problem</span>

Milton is floating in an inner tube in a wave pool. He is 1.5 m from the bottom of the pool when he is at the trough of a wave.
posledela
This is the concept of sinusoidal, to solve the question we proceed as follows;
Using the formula;
g(t)=offset+A*sin[(2πt)/T+Delay]
From sinusoidal theory, the time from trough to crest is normally half the period of the wave form. Such that T=2.5
The pick magnitude is given by:
Trough-Crest=
2.1-1.5=0.6 m
amplitude=1/2(Trough-Crest)
=1/2*0.6
=0.3
The offset to the center of the circle is 0.3+1.5=1.8
Since the delay is at -π/2 the wave will start at the trough at [time,t=0]
substituting the above in our formula we get:
g(t)=1.8+(0.3)sin[(2*π*t)/2.5]-π/2]
g(t)=1.8+0.3sin[(0.8πt)/T-π/2]

James has established the following monthly budget for himself: Rent . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
8090 [49]

Answer:

James's monthly income is $1250.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the budget accounts for James's entire monthly income, the sum of the cost of all the items on the budget is his total monthly income.

Income = 300 + 175 + 125 + 200 + 250 + 50 + 25 + 125 = $1250

Alannah has two lengths of ribbon.
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Longest possible length for each of the shorter lengths of ribbon is 9 cm because greatest common factor for both 36 and 45 is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alannah has two ribbons one length is 36cm and other is 45cm.

It asked to find shorter length of ribbons that each cut into equal pieces with out no ribbon left over.

So, let's find greatest common factor for both 36 and 45.

Let's prime factor each number

36= 2*2*3*3

45= 3*3*5

So, GCF is product of common factors for both numbers.

GCF= 3*3 =9

So, longest possible length for each of the shorter lengths of ribbon is 9 cm.
