To avoid overcrowding, a local animal shelter has a monthly goal to find 30% of their dog homes. if they started with 80 dogs this month and reached their monthly goal, how many dogs were found homes?

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The animal shelter owned 80 dogs. They want to find 30% of 80 dogs.

Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.

30% = 0.30 = 0.3

30% of 80 = 0.3(80)

Solve the expression to find the number of dog that found homes.

0.3(80)  Multiply

= 24

Therefore 24 dogs found homes.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

let m = monomial

let t = trinomial

so, m times t = t.

monomial times a trinomial = another trinomial.
