The 13 pound bag is 1/2 of the 26 pound bag so if 40 dogs eat that then 20 dogs will eat 13 pounds.

Answer:
y=-3x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-8-7)/(4-(-1))
m=-15/(4+1)
m=-15/5
m=-3
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-7=-3(x-(-1))
y-7=-3(x+1)
y=-3x-3+7
y=-3x+4
If 1 serving = 1/4 pound, then 4 servings = 1 pound. 6 pounds *4=24 servings. That leaves 1/3 of a pound. 1/4 pound is less than 1/3 pound, so you get one more serving.
That makes 25 servings, and 1/12 of a pound left over.
How do you know it is 1/12? Well, LCD (lowest common denominator) shows that 1/3-1/4= 4/12-3/12=1/12.
