There are 5 large dogs and 3 small dogs

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "S" be the number of small dogs

Let "L" be the number of large dogs

<em><u>Given that There are a total of 8 small and large dogs</u></em>

So we can frame a equation as:

number of small dogs + number of large dogs = 8

S + L = 8 ------- eqn 1

<em><u>You realize there are 2 more large dogs than small dogs</u></em>

Number of large dogs = 2 + number of small dogs

L = 2 + S  -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "L" and "S"</u></em>

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

S + 2 + S = 8

2S + 2 = 8

2S = 6

<h3>S = 3</h3>

Substitute S = 3 in eqn 2

L = 2 + 3 = 5

<h3>L = 5</h3>

Thus there are 5 large dogs and 3 small dogs

So we have -23 degrees to start

It becomes -23+5=-18

Now subtract 7 from that so -18-7=-25 degrees

Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.
Firdavs [7]

y = -1 + 3/8x

2x - 5y = 6

Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.

2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6

2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6

2x - 15/8x = 1

16/8x - 15/8x = 1

1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself

x = 8


Plug x into either of the equations.

y = -1 + 3/8(8)

y = -1 + 3

y = 2


2(8) - 5y = 6

16 - 5y = 6

-5y = -10

y = 2
