Part A

In "The Case for Shelter Animals," what does the author explain about the cost of becoming a pet owner?


Adoption costs more money than buying a pet.

Pet stores are more expensive than breeders.

It is more expensive to buy a pet than it is to adopt.

Cats are less expensive than dogs.
Question 2
Part B

Which evidence from the text best supports the answer to Part A?


"So those who buy from pet stores and breeders can expect to pay those fees on top of already-high purchase costs."

"The guide states that adopting a dog or a cat from a shelter usually costs between $50 and $500."

"Meanwhile, an animal from a pet store typically costs at least $1,000. Breeders are even more expensive."

"One reason that adopting pets from shelters is the logical choice is that shelter animals are less expensive than those bought from pet stores or breeders."

part a, c part b, d

Step-by-step explanation: i just took the test for k12

Answer 2

Statement 1 is incorrect.

Statement 2 is incorrect.

Statement 3 is correct.

Statement 4 is incorrect.

What is the adoption cost?

Adoption cost in the given problem is the money spent in maintenance, feeding, and other expenses in order to adopt a pet.

"Adoption costs more money than buying a pet" is an incorrect statement because if we extract the conclusion combinedly from statements 2 and 3, it is clear that adoption cost is in the range of $50 and $500 in the case of a shelter animal while an animal from a pet store typically costs at least $1,000.

"Pet stores are more expensive than breeders", this is an incorrect statement because in the third paragraph it is mentioned that "an animal from a pet store typically costs at least $1,000. Breeders are even more expensive."

"It is more expensive to buy a pet than it is to adopt" is a correct statement because in the fourth paragraph it is mentioned that "adopting pets from shelters is the logical choice because shelter animals are less expensive than those bought from pet stores or breeders."

"Cats are more expensive than dogs" is an incorrect statement because in the second paragraph it s mentioned, "adopting a dog or a cat from a shelter usually costs between $50 and $500." There has not been discussed anything about the individual adoption costs for each.

Therefore, Statement 1 is incorrect.

Statement 2 is incorrect.

Statement 3 is correct.

Statement 4 is incorrect.

is the expression a^12 x a^4 equivalent to a^8 x a^8

Answers

[tex]\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}[/tex]

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Properties of indices.

Here, we have to prove that, if the above exponential equation are equal or not., let's prove it

1.)L.H.S

a^12*a^4 = a^m*a^n ===> a^(m+n)

hence, a^(12+4) ===> a^(16)

2.) R.H.S

===> a^8*a^8 = a^(8+8) ==> a^(16)

since here, LHS = RHS

so both are equal.

solve this system of equations by using the elimination method.

2x-3y=25
5x+3y=10

Answers

Elimination method is my favorite way to solve 2 equations like this written in standard form! First I'm going to rewrite the equations and mark numbers to make this explanation more clear.

2x-3y=251️⃣

5x+3y=102️⃣

Looking at these 2 equations we can see that there is a +3 and a -3. This could be eliminated by adding the 2 equations together! *Remember what is on the left side adds with the left side, and what's on the right side adds with the right side. Therefore we can do:

1️⃣+2️⃣

2x-3y+5x+3y=25+10

7x=35

x=5

Then we can substitute the value of x back into either of the 2 equations.

2*5-3y=25

10-3y=25

3y=-15

y=-5

Then write the 2 answers together.

{x=5

{

{y=-5

Now we can check our answers.

2*5-3*-5=10- -15= 10+15=25 Correct

5*5+3*-5= 25+ -15= 10 Correct

From this we can see that x=5 y=  - 5 are the correct answers!

Step-by-step explanation:

The point is on the line.

The coordinate values satisfy the equation:

  1/3x + y = 12

  1/3(3) + 11 = 12 . . . substitute for x and y

  1 + 11 = 12 . . . . . . . true

Any point that satisfies the equation is a solution. (3, 11) is a solution.

Does the point (6, 0) satisfy the equation y = x + 6?
yes or no​

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to replace the (6,0) with the equation at hand. So, since 6 is in the X spot and 0 is in the Y spot, the equation would then look like 0=6+6. The equation is false as you can see.

No, this point does not lie on the line y = x + 6.

What is the general equation of a Straight line?

The general equation of a straight line is -

y = mx + c[m] → is slope of line which tells the unit rate of change of [y] with respect to [x].[c] → is the y - intercept i.e. the point where the graph cuts the [y] axis.

Other possible equations of lines are -

(y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)                                 {Point - slope form}(y - y₁) = (y₂ - y₁) × (x - x₁)/(x₂ - x₁)      {Two point - slope form}x/a + y/b = 1                                        {intercept form}x cos(β) + y sin(β) = L                         {Normal form}

We have the equation of line as -

y = x + 6

For point (6, 0), we can write -

0 = 6 + 6

0 ≠ 12

Therefore, no, this point does not lie on the line -

y = x + 6

One pipe can fill a tank three times as fast as another pipe. If together the two pipes can fill the tank in 36 minutes, how many minutes would it take the slower pipe to fill the tank by itself? Your answer

Answers

Answer: 144 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information that has been given in the question, the minutes that the slower pipe alone can use in filling the tank can be denoted by y minutes.

Therefore, the faster pipe will fill it in 1/3 × x = x/3 minutes.

Therefore,

1/x + 3/x = 1/36

4/x = 1/36

x = 36 × 4

x = 144

The number of minutes taken by the slower pipe will be 144 minutes.

The area of the rectangle is 35/9 square inches.

What is a rectangle?

A rectangle is a 2-D shape with length and width.

The length and width are different.

If the length and width are not different then it is a square.

The area of a rectangle is given as:

Area = Length x width

We have,

To find the area of a rectangle,

We multiply the length by the width.

Length = 2 1/3 = 7/3 inches

Width = 1 2/3 = 5/3 inches

Area = Length x Width

Area = (7/3) x (5/3)

Area = 35/9 square inches

Therefore,

The area of the rectangle is 35/9 square inches.

Elena is ordering dried chili peppers and corn husks for her cooking class. Chili peppers cost $16.95 per pound and corn husks cost $6.49 per pound.

Elena spends less than $50 on d pounds of dried chili peppers and h pounds of corn husks.

Can Elena purchase 1.5 pounds of dried chili peppers and 3 pounds of corn husks and spend less than $50? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Yes she can. If she buy 1.5 pounds of dried chili peppers and 3 pounds of corn husks they will cost $45 so yes she will spend less than $50

Yes, Elena purchase 1.5 pounds of dried chili peppers and 3 pounds of corn husks and spend less than $50.

What is the reference as the equation?In its most basic form, an equation is an assertion that demonstrates that two formulas are equal. 63x + 5 = 14, for example, is an equation wherein 63x + 5 and 14 are two representations separated by a 'equal' sign.

For the given question;

Let the pounds of dried chili peppers be 'd'.Let pounds of corn husks be 'h'.Chili peppers cost $16.95 per pound Corn husks cost $6.49 per pound.

The equation becomes;

16.95 d + 6.49 h

16.95 (1.5) + 6.49 (3)

  25.425 + 19.47

        44.895 < $50

Thus, Elena purchase 1.5 pounds of dried chili peppers and 3 pounds of corn husks and spend less than $50.
