At a kennel, the ratio of dogs to cats was 4to9. if there were 64 dog s how many cats were there

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Dogs. Cats.
4. To. 9

64. To. ?

I solved this by guess-timating, and i got it right. I know that 8*8=64 and 4*2=8 8*2=16, and i checked and got 16*4=64.
Since you do:

Dogs:4 * 16= 64
You have to do:
Cats:9 * 16= # of cats
And 9*16=144,

So there are 144 cats at the kennel
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:  There are 144 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : the ratio of dogs to cats was 4 to 9. This means for every 4 dogs there are 9 cats.

Step 2 : There are 64 dogs. Therefore we want to find out how many groups of 4 we can get out of 64. Divide 64/4= 16.

Step 3 : 9 * 16 = 144 cats

X has coordinates (a,3a) and Y has coordinates (-5a,0). Find the coordinates of the midpoint of XY

Answers

For this case we have that by definition, the midpoint of a segment is given by:

XY = (\frac {x1 + x2} {2}, \frac {y1 + y2} {2})

We have the following ordered pairs:

(x1, y1) = (a, 3a)\n(x2, y2) = (- 5a, 0)

Therefore, substituting values we have:

XY = (\frac {a-5a} {2}, \frac {3a + 0} {2})

Rewriting we have:

XY = (\frac {-4a} {2}, \frac {3a} {2})\n

XY = (- 2a, \frac {3a} {2})

Answer:

the coordinates of the midpoint of XY

XY = (- 2a, \frac {3a} {2})

Tell whether x and y show direct variation.
xy=5

Answers

Form of direct variation looks like y = kx, where k is any constant number (2, 3/4, 1/3, etc)

So here you have xy = 5.

Divide both sides by x, and you have y = 5/x.

So it is not direct variable, it is inverse variation.
direct variation is when a=x/y a stays constant so when x goes up, then y also goes up so lets say a=2 then 2=x/y so if x is 2 then y=1 if x is 4 then y=2

indirect variation is a=xy where when x goes down y goes up so less say a=2 then if x=2 then y=1 if x=1 then y=2


for number 9. it shows direct variation because when x goes up, y also must go up
