Answer:

$x=6$

$y=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute (-y + 3) for x in the first equation:

$15(-y+3)+31y=-3$

Expand:

$45-15y+31y=-3$

Simplify:

$45+16y=-3$

Subtact 45 from both sides:

$16y=-48$

Divide both sides by 16:

$y=-3$

Substitute -3 for y in either equation:

$x=-(-3)+3$

$x=6$

Answer:

The function is represented by $C(d) = 75\,USD + r\cdot d$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we must observe that total cost of the dog ( $C(d)$ ) is the sum of two components: i) <em>Fixed cost</em> ( $C_{f}$ ) - Adoption fee, ii) <em>Variable cost</em> ( $C_{v}$ ) - Daily cost of feeding the dog, both measured in US dollars.
