Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4.5b + 8.5c = 175

b + c = 22.......b = 22 - c

4.5(22 - c) + 8.5c = 175

99 - 4.5c + 8.5c = 175

-4.5c + 8.5c = 175 - 99

4c = 76

c = 76/4

c = 19......there are 19 cats

b + c = 22

b + 19 = 22

b = 22 - 19

b = 3 <==== there are 3 birds

Find the point on the line <br> y = 2x + 3<br> that is closest to the origin.
Ludmilka [50]
I believe the answer is (-1,1) . The origin is the same as (0, 0) so I drew the line on a quick graph and if you are talking about distance, then the answer should be correct.
Hope this helped :)
