Answer:
y = -140
Step-by-step explanation:
Y varies directly with x
y = kx
We know y = -20 when x =2, we can solve for k
-20 = k*2
Divide each side by 2
-20/2= 2k/2
-10 =k
y = -10x
Now we want to find y when x = 14
y = -10 *14
y = -140
So 2:5 means that 5/7 animals are cats and 2/7 are dogs. I believe if you divide u will get your answer. 5/7 * 7/2 = 1.25x the number of dogs

Answer:
when y=8 x= 73 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My teacher taught me a simple equation for these types of problems:
(percent of solution × amount of solution) + (percent of solution × amount of solution) = (percent of solution × total amount of solution)
in simple terms: %amount + %amount = %total amount
We know don't know how much gallons of 60% solution we need so it will be represented as x. We dont know the total amount either so it would have to be both solutions added together so 50 + x. Now lets solve:
(0.60)(x) + (0.24)(50) = (0.50)(50 + x) simplify/ distribute
0.6x + 12 = 25 +0.5x get all xs on one side and numbers on other
0.1x + 12 = 25
0.1x = 13 divide both sides by 0.1 to find x
x = 130
You need 130 gallons of 60% solution.
