From \(\frac{x}{y} = 8\), we know \(x = 8y\). Substitute into \(\frac{56x}{my} = 8\) to get \(\frac{56(8y)}{my} = 8\). Simplify to \(\frac{448y}{my} = 8\), cancel \(y\) and solve to find \(m = 56\).

Calculate the slope with the given points and determine the equation of the line. Substitute \(x = p - 6\) to find \(b = -41\).

Substitute \( y = 24 \) into the equation: \( 3.5x + 7(24) = 140 \Rightarrow 3.5x + 168 = 140 \Rightarrow 3.5x = -28 \). Since \( x \) cannot be negative, the shelter cannot care for any cats, making this question tricky.

The mean of each data set is centered around 15, as both data sets have symmetric distributions around this value.

To find \( a \), set \( p(x) = 0 \): \( 3x + 9 = 0 Rightarrow x = -3 \). Thus, \( a = -3 \). For \( b \), evaluate \( p(0) = 9 \). Therefore, \( a + b = -3 + 9 = 6 \).

To find \( p \): \( 120 = \frac{p}{100} \times 200 \implies p = \frac{120 \times 100}{200} = 60 \). Calculate \( 60 \% \) of \( 120 \): \( \frac{60}{100} \times 120 = 72 \).

Isolate \(10a + 3b\) by multiplying both sides by \((10a + 3b)\), resulting in \(m = q(10a + 3b)\). Dividing by \(q\) gives \(10a + 3b = \frac{m}{q}\).

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{350}{700} \times 100 = 50\% \).

Convert the area to square miles by dividing by \(1760^2\): \(10,240,000 / 3,097,600 = 3.31\) square miles.

Data set B has higher frequencies around the center value (20) compared to Data set A, resulting in equal means for both data sets.

The lines have the same slope but different intercepts, indicating that they are parallel and do not intersect at any point.

The volume of a cube is given by \( V = s^3 \). Here, \( V = 64000 \), so \( s = \sqrt[3]{64000} = 40 \). The surface area is \( 6s^2 \). Therefore, the surface area is \( 6(40)^2 = 9600 \) square units.

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 + 20}}{2} = 2 \pm \sqrt{9}\). So, the solution can be written as \(2 + \sqrt{9}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 9.

First, find the measure of angle T in radians: \( \frac{2\pi}{3} + \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{11\pi}{12} \). Then, convert to degrees by multiplying by \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \( \frac{11\pi}{12} \cdot \frac{180}{\pi} = 165 \) degrees.

To find the surface area, first find the side length using \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 27000 \), find \( s = \sqrt[3]{27000} = 30 \). The surface area is given by \( 6s^2 \). Therefore, the surface area is \( 6(30)^2 = 5400 \) square units.

To find \( f(0) \), substitute \( 0 \) for \( x \): \( f(0) = 400(0.5)^0 \). Since \( (0.5)^0 = 1 \), the expression becomes \( 400 imes 1 = 400 \).

After simplifying and solving, we find \( y = 27 \).

Since the function decreases by 45%, it retains 55% of its value at each step. Thus, the multiplier for the decay is 0.55. Therefore, the correct equation is \( q(x) = 14(0.55)^x \).

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{12 \pm \sqrt{144 - 44}}{2} = 6 \pm \sqrt{25}\). So, the solution can be written as \(6 + \sqrt{25}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 25.

To find \( f(0) \), substitute \( 0 \) for \( x \) in the function: \( f(0) = 300(0.2)^0 \). Since any non-zero number raised to the power of \( 0 \) is \( 1 \), the expression becomes \( 300 imes 1 = 300 \).

The change in degrees Fahrenheit is determined by multiplying the temperature increase in kelvins by \( \frac{9}{5} \), since the \( x \) term in the function is being multiplied by this factor. Therefore, the increase in Fahrenheit temperature is \( \frac{9}{5} \times 1.50 = 2.70 \).

With \(p(x) = 0.75x\), the function decreases linearly as \(x\) increases, representing a consistent reduction in value. Hence, the answer is 'Decreasing Linear.'

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{9}(x - 7)^2 + 3 \) occurs at \( (7, 3) \). This represents the minimum height of the metal ball. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 7 \) and \( k = 3 \), the minimum height is 3 inches above the ground.

Multiplying the first equation by -2 results in \( -2x + 8y = -6 \), which matches the second equation. Thus, the lines are the same, intersecting at infinitely many points.

To find \( a \), set \( r(x) = 0 \): \( 8x - 16 = 0 Rightarrow x = 2 \). Thus, \( a = 2 \). For \( b \), evaluate \( r(0) = -16 \). Therefore, \( a + b = 2 - 16 = -14 \).

Since the triangles are similar, corresponding angles have the same trigonometric ratios. Thus, \( \sin(E) = \sin(B) = \frac{9}{15} \).

Start by setting up the equation: \( 24,000 = 3,000(2)^{8r} \). Divide both sides by 3,000 to obtain \( 8 = (2)^{8r} \). Taking the logarithm base 2 of both sides gives \( 3 = 8r \). Therefore, \( r = \frac{3}{8} \).

Rewrite \(f(x)\) in vertex form as \(-3(x - 2)^2 + 7\). The maximum of \(f(x)\) is at \(x = 2\), so \(g(x) = f(x - 6)\) shifts this maximum to \(x = 8\).

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 300 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 300 to get \(P = \frac{w}{150}\).

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(5x\), from the expression: \(5x(x^2 + 7x + 12)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 7x + 12\) as \((x + 3)(x + 4)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 3.

Testing each pair shows that only \( (4, 5) \) satisfies both equations.

The population grows by 2% annually, so the growth factor is 1.02. Since \( x \) is in seconds, we convert it to years by dividing by \( 365 \cdot 24 \cdot 60 \cdot 60 \). The equation is \( p = 50,000 \cdot 1.02^{\frac{x}{365 \cdot 24 \cdot 60 \cdot 60}} \).

The change in degrees Fahrenheit is determined by multiplying the temperature increase in kelvins by \( \frac{9}{5} \), since the \( x \) term in the function is being multiplied by this factor. Therefore, the increase in Fahrenheit temperature is \( \frac{9}{5} \times 4.50 = 8.10 \).

The two equations are actually multiples of each other. Dividing the second equation by 2 yields \( 3x + 5y = 25 \). Thus, both lines coincide, which means they intersect at infinitely many points.

Substitute \( (-1, 3) \) into both inequalities. Both inequalities are satisfied.

Since the triangles are congruent, angle \( Z \) is equal to angle \( C \), so the measure of angle \( C \) is 70°.

Both data sets have their highest frequency around 24, which is the middle value. This symmetry implies that the mean of both data sets is approximately the same.

The system has no solution when the slopes are the same but the lines have different intercepts. Solving this condition gives n = 45.

The population triples every hour, so the growth factor per hour is 3. Since there are 24 hours in a day, the population after \( x \) days is \( p = 1,000 \cdot 3^{24x} \).

Expanding the equation, we obtain \( 2x^2 + 3x - 9 = 4x^2 - 24x \). Rearranging terms, we get \( -2x^2 + 27x - 9 = 0 \). Using the quadratic formula, the sum of the solutions is given by \( -b/a \), where \( a = -2 \) and \( b = 27 \), which yields \( 27/2 \).

Using \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \), we find the minimum value occurs at \( x = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \).

Start with the slope \( -\frac{5}{6} \) and point \( (-6, 4) \). Using the point-slope formula, the equation is \( y = -\frac{5}{6}x + 4 \).

The sum of the solutions of a polynomial equation can be determined using the relationship between the coefficients and the sum of the roots. For each factor, find the solutions and sum them. The given information specifies that the total sum of solutions is \( \frac{20}{3} \), which leads to solving for \( p \).

Since the side lengths of square P are 20 times the side lengths of square Q, the area of square P is \( 20^2 = 400 \) times the area of square Q. Therefore, \( k = 400 \).
