Answer:

The dog weighs 16 pounds, while the cat weighs 8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the weight of the dog d, and the weight of the cat c.

d+c=24

d=2c

Substitute the second equation into the first:

(2c)+c=24

3c=24

c=8

d=24-8=16

Hope this helps!

Enter an equation in point-slope form for the line.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

y + 1 = 8 (x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope form is

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

So replace the y1 with the y point, and the x1 with the x point

y - (-1) = m (x - (-7) )

then replace the m with the slope

y - (-1) = 8 (x - (-7) )

now solve

y + 1 = 8 (x + 7)
