Answer:
a=245 s=315
Step: Solve a+s=560 for a:
a+s=560
a+s=560(Add -s to both sides)
a=−s+560
Step: Substitute −s+560 for a in 8a+3s=2905:
8a+3s=2905
8(−s+560)+3s=2905
−5s+4480=2905(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−5s+4480=2905(Add -4480 to both sides)
−5s=−1575
−5s=−1575(Divide both sides by -5)
s=315
Step: Substitute 315 for s in a=−s+560:
a=−s+560
a=−315+560
a=245

B. 2 2/9 hours.
in 2 hours the will already have made 96 cupcakes so the only logical answer is B
70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.
2 x 2.5 = 5 cups
Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.
By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.
Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.
