<u>Answer (a):</u>
s + l = 22 ... (i)
43s + 75l = 1234 ... (ii)
<u>Answer (b)</u>
9 large dogs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Paws at Play made a total of $1234 grooming 22 dogs.
Paws at Play charges $43 to groom each small dog and;
$75 for each large dog.
Let the number of small dogs be 's'
And the number of large dogs be 'l'
<u>A system of equations will be:</u>
s + l = 22 ... (i)
43s + 75l = 1234 ... (ii)
Solving this set of simultaneous equations by elimination, we simply multiply (i) by 43 to get;
43s + 43l = 946 ... (i)
43s + 75l = 1234 ... (ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii) we get;
32l = 288 , l = = 9
So there are 9 large dogs.

Answer:
46
Step-by-step explanation:
With those problems if you are not given a picture is good we draw one.
Because an angle bisector forms 2 congruent angles and because is given that < XVY ≅ < YVW then
m < XVY = m < YVW
2x+7 = x+15 , subtract x and 7 from both sides to isolate the like terms
2x-x = 15-7, combine like terms
x = 8
From the picture and the given we see that
m < XVW = m < XVY + m < YVW
m < XVW = 2x+7 + x+15 , combine like terms
m < XVW = 3x + 22, substitute x for 8
m < XVW = 3*8 + 22
m < XVW = 46
Check our work:
m < XVY = 2x+7 = 2*8 +7 = 16 +7 = 23
m < YVW = x+15 = 8 +15 = 23
m < XVW = m < XVY + m < YVW = 23+23 =46
