Hope this helps & good luck. :)
Total: 73
dogs: x
cats: 2x+10
2x+10+x=73
3x+10=73
3x=63
x=21
dogs: x
dogs: 21
cats: 2x+10
cats: 52
Check answer:
cats+dogs=73
52+21=73
There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)
To simply this, you just divide the numerator and denominator by its GCF (Greatest common factor)
Factors of 18 : 1,2,3,6,9,18
Factors of 30 : 1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30
As you can see, the great common factors of 18 and 30 is 6.
So divide 18 by 6 and 30 by 6, and you get 3 and 5
Therefore, the simplest form is 3/5
