Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the average number of pounds Fido must loss.
Since, the initial weight of Fido is 35 pounds.
And, After losing the weight, the new weight of Fido in pounds = 28 pounds.
Then the time taken for losing the weight
= 
= 
According to the question, it must lose weight within 6 months,
Thus, 
Which is the required inequality to find the average number of pounds per month.
By solving it we, get, 
Answer:
x=7, -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-5x=14
x^2-5x-14=0
factor out the trinomial,
(x-7)(x+2)=0
zero property,
x-7=0, x+2=0,
x=0+7=7,
x=0-2=-2
5 because 25 divided by 5 is 5
36÷6 is 6 to show your work for it maybe draw it out and better show the equation like when you solve a bigger problem.
