Answer:

the cat weighs 21 pounds.

the dog weighs 43 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

dog = 3x-20 = x + 22

cat = x

3x-20 = x+22

3x = x+42 (add 20 to both sides)

2x = 42 (subtract x from both sides)

x = 21

Which ordered pair below is a solution to the following system of equations?
KatRina [158]

The solution of the equation is given by (-2,-1), This is represented by option C.

<h3>What is a System of Equations?</h3>

A system of equations is a set of equation that have a common solution.

The solution of the equations can be determined by using the Elimination and Substitution method

3x-5y = -1

2x-y = -3

-7x = 14

x = -2

Substituting this value in the equation

3 * (-2) -5y = -1

-6 -5y = -1

-5y = 5

y = -1

Therefore, the solution of the equation is given by (-2,-1), This is represented by option C.

What is the hypotenuse of an triangle with sides 6 and 8 and angles 30 and 60 degrees?
klemol [59]
Hypotenuse ^2 = base^2 + perpendicular ^2

H^2 = 6^2 + 8^2
H^2 = 36 + 64
H^2 = 100
H = 10

(This is a right angle triangle as 60+30= 90
180-90= 90)

A bicycle shop sells only bicycles and tricycles. Altogther there are 23 seats and 50 wheels. How many bicycles and tricycles ar
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The number of bicycles is 19.

and the number of tricycles is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that the number of seats in bicycles as well as in tricycles is 1.

The number of wheels in bicycles is 2

and the number of wheels in tricycles is 3.

Let the number of bicycles be x.

and the number of tricycles be y.

Thus using the given information we can make equation as,

x + y = 23

and, 2x + 3y = 50

Solving these two equations:

We get, x = 19 and y = 4

Thus the number of bicycles is 19.

and the number of tricycles is 4.
