Total number is 24.
Let the number of dogs be 3x and the number of cats be x.
3x + x = 24
4x = 24
x = 24/4
Number of dogs is : 24/4 × 3
Thus the answer is B.
Hope it helped!!
Find the number of acts not booked = 21 - 10 = 11
multiply by the profit for each act 11 * 175000 = $1,925,000 shortfall
Answer:
x= 29/11 or y= 25/11
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - y= 3 ...........equation 1
x + 5y= 14 ............equation 2
Make x the subject of the formula in equation 2
x= 14 - 5y ..............equation 3
Substitute x=14 - 5y in equation 1
2(14- 5y) - y=3
28 - 10y - y=3
Collect like terms
-10y - y=3 - 28
-11y= -25
divide both sides by coefficient of y
-11y/-11 = -25/-11
y= 25/11
Substitute y= 25/11 in equation 3
x=14 - 5(25/11)
x= 14 - 125/11
x= 29/11
Think of this situation as a system of equations.
let y be the price of hotdogs
let x be the price of hamburgers
5y + 2x = 8
2y + 5x = 9.50
now use your solution method of choice
substitution, elimination, matrices, etc
I honestly don’t understand
