Answer
• A. Equation: 25(5 + x) = 325
,
• B. Answer: 8 dogs
Explanation
Given
• Charge to wash a dog: $25.
• She washed 5 dogs on Saturday and then some more on Sunday.
• She made $325 for the weekend.
Procedure
She charges $25 per wash, she made $325 for the weekend, and we know that on Saturday she washed 5 dogs, but we don't know how many she washed on Sunday. Thus, we have to build an equation in which the number of dogs washed on Sunday is represented by x (as we do not know the real number).
Considering that the total money made has to be equal to the multiplication of the charge times the dogs washed, the equation is:
Then, we have to solve for x to know how many dogs did she wash on Sunday.
0. Multiplying the parenthesis
<em>2. Subtracting 125 from both sides of the equation</em>
<em>3. Dividing both sides of the equation against 25</em>
The definition of a real-world equation is an equation that could perhaps occur in real life, for things like construction.

Step-by-step answer:
Given:
A triangle
Perimeter = 60 cm
longest side = 4* shortest side (x)
Solution:
longest side = 4x
shortest side = x
third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x
The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle. Hence
x + y > 4x
x + 60-5x > 4x
60 - 4x > 4x
8x < 60
x < 60/8 = 7.5, or
x < 7.5
Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.
Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.
40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.
Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need
4x>=y
or
4x >= 60-5x
9x >=60
x >= 6.67
so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.
The only valid option is x=7 cm
The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,
(7, 25, 28)
5, 20, 35 (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
The answers is A x=4.5y because for whatever y is you multiply it by 4.5 and it gives you your x. Trust me. They all match too; I checked.
