Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 3(3x - 6) = 5(x - 3) + 15

Expand the parenthesis:

2 + 9x - 18 = 5x - 15 + 15

Simplify:

9x - 16 = 5x

Subtract 5x from both sides:

4x - 16 = 0

Add 16 to both sides:

4x = 16

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 4

A pet store currently has a total of 45 cats and dogs. There are 7 more cats than dogs. Determine the number of cats and dogs in
irina1246 [14]

x+y=45

x=y+7

Use substitution...

Plug y+7 into the first equation.  You get (y+7)+y=45.  Next combine the like terms.  2y+7=45.  Subtract 7 from both sides and you get 38.  Divide 2 on both sides to get y alone and you get 19.  Since there are more cats than dogs, this is the amount of dogs.  Add 19+7 since there are 7 more cats than dogs and you get 26 cats.  Therefore there is 19 dogs and 26 cats.
