Cats can sleep in average of 16 hours a day. the average cat lives 13 years, about how many years does a cat spend sleeping? round to the nearest tenth.

8.7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The average number of hours that a cat sleeps in a day is 16. The average cat lives 13 years.

We would determine the total number of hours that the average cat lives.

Assuming that there are 365 days in a year, it means that the number of days that an average cat lives would be

365 × 13 = 4745 days

There are 24 hours in a day, this means that the number of hour that a average cat lives would be

24 × 4745 = 113880 hours

If the cat sleeps

16 hours in 24 hours,

In 113880 hours, the cat would sleep

(16 × 113888)/16 = 75920 hours.

Converting 75920 hours to years, it becomes

75920/24 × 365 = 8.7 years

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
