Complete Question
A dog weighs 2 pounds less than 3 times the weight of a cat. The dog weighs twenty two more pounds than the cat.
Write and solve an equation to find the weights of the cat and the dog.
Answer:
Weight of cat = x = 12 pounds
Weight of Dog = y = 34 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent:
Weight of cat = x
Weight of Dog = y
A dog weighs 2 pounds less than 3 times the weight of a cat.
y = 3x - 2........ Equation 1
The dog weighs twenty two more pounds than the cat
y = x + 22....... Equation 2
The equation is given as:
y = y
3x - 2 = x + 22
Collect like terms
3x - x = 22 + 2
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12 pounds
Solving for y using any of the equations:
y = 3x - 2
y = 3 × 12 - 2
y = 36 - 2
y = 34 pounds
Therefore:
Weight of cat = x = 12 pounds
Weight of Dog = y = 34 pounds
Answer:
11/1 or 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale of the y-axis is 11 and the scale of the x-axis is 1. As said before the Unit Rate is y/x
If you pick one point, let's say (2,22), that will give you 22/2. If we simplify that fraction you get 11/1 or 11.
For the #4 - 8/2 & 16/4
For the #5 - 10/2 & 25/5
For the #3 - 6/2 & 9/3
For the #6 - 12/6 & 36/6
I think these are right .. Hope this helps. (:
2000 is the correct answer hope this helps! :D
