Complete Question
A dog weighs 2 pounds less than 3 times the weight of a cat. The dog weighs twenty two more pounds than the cat.
Write and solve an equation to find the weights of the cat and the dog.
Answer:
Weight of cat = x = 12 pounds
Weight of Dog = y = 34 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent:
Weight of cat = x
Weight of Dog = y
A dog weighs 2 pounds less than 3 times the weight of a cat.
y = 3x - 2........ Equation 1
The dog weighs twenty two more pounds than the cat
y = x + 22....... Equation 2
The equation is given as:
y = y
3x - 2 = x + 22
Collect like terms
3x - x = 22 + 2
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12 pounds
Solving for y using any of the equations:
y = 3x - 2
y = 3 × 12 - 2
y = 36 - 2
y = 34 pounds
Therefore:
Weight of cat = x = 12 pounds
Weight of Dog = y = 34 pounds
The answer to your question is 2/3 because there are 2 cups and 2/3 of buttermilk meaning 33.3333.. so it would be 20/30 then 2/3
X = 50 (Is parallel to the y-axis so there is no intersection point)
Y= 40 (Is parallel to the x-axis so there is no intersection point)
Both no intercept with the other
Answer:f(x)=x2 +1
Step-by-step explanation:
The one represents C in the standard form and it can also be used to represent graph placement so +1 can also represent the vertex going up 1 on the y
The slope-intercept form:
m - slope
b - y-intercept
The formula of a slope:
We have the points (-3, 1) and (2, -4). Substitute:
Therefore we have the equation of a line
Put the coordinates of the point (-3, 1) to the equation:
<em>subtract 3 from both sides</em>
<h3>Answer: y = -x - 2</h3>
