Answer:

14\ pounds

Below is the procedure that was used to find the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "e" the weight in pounds of the elephant and "c" the weight in pounds of the cat.

According to the information provided in the exercise, we know that The weight of an elephant is 10^3 times the weight of a cat. Based on this we can write the following equation:

e=10^3c

If the weight in pounds of the elephant is:

e=14,000

We must substitute this value into the equation and then solve for "c" in order to find the weight in pounds of the cat.

Then we get:

14,000=10^3c\\\\\frac{14,000}{10^3}=c\\\\c=14

Answer: There are <u>4</u> teams in the league

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Add 14 four times: 14+14+14+14 = 56

(2) Multiply 14 four times: 14 x 4 = 56

(3) Combine both of these numbers into the <em>t  </em>factor: 14t = 56

(4) Divide both sides by 14 and simplify: (14t / 14) = 56/14 | t = <u>4</u> (simplified)
