c = cost of food/med for cats
d = cost of food/med for dog
y = total cost/spent
What you know:
y = 6c + d [has 6 cats and 1 dog]
c = 2/3d - 5 [cost for cat is 5 less than 2/3 cost for dog]
y = $195
y = 6c + d
Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in (2/3d - 5) for c and 195 for y
195 = 6(2/3d - 5) + d Distribute/multiply 6 into (2/3d - 5)
195 = 4d - 30 + d Combine like terms
195 = 5d - 30 Add 30 on both sides of the equation
225 = 5d Divide 5 on both sides
$45 = d

Answer:
Joshua can spend up to 3.21 on a card.
Step-by-step explanation:
is the correct equation because Joshua is spending 21.79 on flowers, a certain amount on the card, and the maximum he can spend is 25. That is why you use the less than or equal to sign.
To solve, first subtract 21.79 from both sides to get: 
. This means that Joshua can spend up to 3.21 on a card.
