Mary's dog weights 185 pound. Her dog needs to lose between 9 and 15 pounds. Between what two percentages rounded to the nearest whole number, should Mary's dog lose weight with respect to its current weight 185 pounds.

Mary' s dog should loose weight between  92%-95%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Mary's dog current  weight=  185 pound

weight to loose =Between  9 and 15 pounds

 Loosing 9 pounds , the dog"s new weight will be = 185- 9= 176 pounds

also

 Loosing 15 pounds , the dog"s new weight will be = 185- 15= 170pounds

Step 2

Percentage  of weight loss to current weight when he looses 9 pounds=

= 176/185 x 100

=0.95 x100=95%

Percentage  of weight loss to current weight when he looses 15 pounds=

= 170/185 x 100

=0.9189 x100

=91.89= 92%

Therefore Mary' s dog should loose weight between  92%-95%

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24
