A zoo keeper was in charge of determining the population of meerkats at the zoo. He observed the meerkats and noted 8 of them and the special markings are on their face. The next day he went back out and observed the meerkats again. Out of the 20 that he saw, 4 of them were the same meerkats that he saw yesterday. How many meerkats can he assume are living at the zoo?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The zoo-keeper saw 8 special meerkats the day before and then only saw 4 special meerkats out of 20 the day after so 4 - 20 = 16.

Answer 2
Your answer would simply be 16

Answers

If Pinocchio says 'My nose grows now,' he is either lying or not. If he is lying, then he is making a false statement, which implies that his nose does not grow now. ... In this context, the statement "my nose grows now" is a prediction or an 'educated' guess, which in its nature cannot be construed as a lie.

Hank is throwing a surprise party. The party costs $20 per person. Create an equation and graph to represent the relationship between the cost of the party and the number of friends attending.

Complete the following table:

Number of friends (f) 5 10 15 20
Cost of party (c) 100 200 300 400

Plots the points from the table onto the graph.

Answers

Answer: Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of party per person = $20.

Let the number of friends be 'f'.

Let the cost of party be 'p'.

According to question, our equation becomes

p= 2f

So, if p = 100, then f = p/2 = 100/2 = 50 if f = 10, then, p = 2f = 2 • 10 = 20 If p = 300 then, f = 300/2 = 150, If f = 20, then, p = 2f = 2 • 20 = 40 So, Table as follows:

Number of friends cost of party

50 100

10 20

150 300

Answers

Add 8 to 5 and 6 on the left side of the equation. Put p on the right side. Answer is 19=p

Answer:

p = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

5−p+6=−8

5 + 6 - p = -8

11  - p = --8

11 - 11 - p = -8 - 11

- p = -19

p = 19

You would plot a closed circle on the line that has the value of 19 on the number line.

They are vertical angles, all vertical angles are congruent, x=45.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+6=96, subtract 6 from each side, => 2x=96, divide both sides by 2, => [tex]\frac{2x}{2}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{96}{2}[/tex]

x=45.

Cole has a rectangular garden with an area of 16.02 square meters. What is the width, in meters, of the garden?

Answers

Answer:

3.56m

Step-by-step explanation:Parameters given:

Area of the rectangular garden = 16.02m^2

Length of the rectangular garden = 4.5m

The Area of a rectangle can be calculated for using the formula below

Area (square meters) = length (meters) × width (meters)

Therefore, 16.02m^2 = 4.5m × width

Width = 16.02m^2 / 4.5m

Width = 3.56m

Therefore the width in meters of the garden is 3.56m

See the attachment below for an illustrative diagram

A = area

l = length

w = width

16.02 divided by 2 = 8.01

Part A:

Full size car rental is $49/day, insurance is $21/day, and the total is $465 after a coupon for $25. Ok. We have to add the daily charges, then multiply that by the number of days. Next we’ll subtract his coupon, and get $465:

(49 + 21)d - 25 = 465
70d - 25 = 465
70d = 490
d = 7
7 days is this answer.

Part B:
Now that we did part A, this is a little easier to come up with an equation for, right? ;)
(39 + 21)d - 25 = 465
60d = 490
d = 8.16
8 days is this answer

Part C:
Now we don’t know the cost of the car, so that is x. But we know we still have to add that to the 21 for insurance, and multiply that sum by the 5 days they’re renting it. On the other side of the equation, Marven and his 3 friends spent $75 each, so our total is 75 x 4.

(x + 21)5 = 75 x 4
5x + 105 = 300
5x = 195
x = 39

They rented the smaller car.
