Answer:

There are 24 cats  at the shelter on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of an animal shelter per day to care for each cat =$1.00

Cost of an animal shelter per day to care for each dog = $4.50

Let number of cats be c

Let number of dogs be d

According to question,

We will use "Substitution Method ",

Put in the second equation :

so, Number of dogs = 25

and

Hence, Number of cats is 24.

<h3>Answer:  8 cats</h3>

============================================================

Work Shown:

c = number of cats

d = number of dogs

c+d = 24 total animals

c = 24-d ... subtract d from both sides

1c = cost in dollars to care for c number of cats

8d = cost in dollars to care for d number of dogs

c+8d = total cost = 136

c+8d = 136

24-d+8d = 136 ... replace c with 24-d

7d+24 = 136

7d+24-24 = 136-24 ... subtract 24 from both sides

7d = 112

7d/7 = 112/7 .... divide both sides by 7

d = 16

There are 16 dogs.

c = 24-d

c = 24-16

c = 8

<h3>There were 8 cats.</h3>
