Answer: You walked 12 dogs
Step-by-step explanation:
If you charge 0.75 per dog then we can represent that by the expression 0.75x where x is the number of dogs. If you charge $5 for the initial amount, then the whole expression will be 0.75x +5 and that has to equal the amount that you earned working on Saturday.So the equation will be
0.75x + 5 = 14 Now solve for x by first subtracting 5 from both sides
-5 -5
0.75x = 9 Divide both sides by 0.75
x = 12
Answer:
x=50
Step-by-step explanation:
note that 40% is 2/5
Therefore, 30 tomatoes is 1- 2/5 = 3/5
3/5 of the tomatoes last year is 30
lets say tomatoes = x
3/5 x = 30
divide by 3 on both sides
1/5 x = 10
multiply by 5 on both sides
x=50

hope it helped :D
<u>Direct Variation:</u> 
when y = 7: 
14 = 15x
<u>Inverse variation:</u> y*x = k
15 * 2 = k
30 = k
when y = 7: 7 * x = 30
get the equation in slope intercept form
2x-3y=9
subtract 2x from each side
-3y = -2x +9
divide by -3
y = 2/3 x -3
slope = 2/3
y intercept = -3
x intercept set y=0 and solve
0 = 2/3 x -3
add 3 to each side
3 = 2/3 x
multiply each side by 3/2
9/2 = x
the x intercept is 9/2 or 4 1/2
