Answer:
the cat weighs 21 pounds.
the dog weighs 43 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
dog = 3x-20 = x + 22
cat = x
3x-20 = x+22
3x = x+42 (add 20 to both sides)
2x = 42 (subtract x from both sides)
x = 21
Answer: All real numbers :)
1- Solution using graphs:Take a look at the attached images.
The red graph represents the first given function while the blue graph represents the second given function.
We can note that the two graphs are the same line (they overlap).
This means that any chosen point on one of them will satisfy the other.
This means that there are infinite number of solutions to these two equations.
2- Solution using substitution:The first given equation is:
y = -5x + 3 ...........> equation I
The second given equation is:
2y + 10x = 6 ...........> equation II
Substitute with I in II and solve as follows:
2(-5x+3) + 10x = 6
-10x + 6 + 10x = 6
0 = 0
This means that there are infinitely many solutions to the given system of equations.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
change 1 4/9 into a improper fraction, which is 13/9, and when dividing fractions flip the second number upside down then multiply. 13/9 times -2/9 is -117/18. simplify, which is 13/2, which is also equal to 6 1/2. hope this helped
