Let g be the number of grandchildren, and d be the number of dogs. They both have only one head, so the number of heads is

g+d=33

Grandchildren have 2 legs, while dogs have 4. So, the total number of legs is

2g+4d=84

From the first equation (the one for the heads) we can derive

g=33-d

Substitute this into the second to get

2g+4d=84 \implies 2(33-d)+4d=84 \iff 2d=18 \iff d=9

So, there are 9 dogs and (from the first equation

g=33-9=24

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

-5.9x - 3.7y = -2.1

5.9x + 3.7y = 2.1

If we add these two equations together, -5.9x cancels out 5.9x, -3.7y cancels out 3.7y, and -2.1 cancels out 2.1.

This leaves us with:

0 = 0

Since this is true, that means there are infinite solutions.
