Total: 73
dogs: x
cats: 2x+10

2x+10+x=73
3x+10=73
3x=63
x=21

dogs: x
dogs: 21

cats: 2x+10
cats: 52

Check answer:
cats+dogs=73
52+21=73

There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.

Best of luck my friend. :)

Kim's softball team was playing in the championship game. When there were 444 innings left, the team was losing by a score of 17
olga nikolaevna [1]

The inequality to determine the number of runs per inning, p Kim's team could have scored is; 4r + 6 > 17

<h3>How to write an Inequality?</h3>

Let r represent the number of runs per inning. Thus for 4 innings, we have 4r.

The team already has 6 runs. Now add the additional runs to this to get;

4r + 6

The team wants to score more than the other team, this means they need more than 17 and so the inequality required is;

4r + 6 > 17

Subtract 6 from each side to get;

4r + 6 - 6 > 17 - 6

4r > 11

Divide both sides by 4 to get:

r > 2.75

Approximating to a whole number gives;

r > 3

Answer:

452.39

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the surface area of a sphere all you need is the radius (half the diameter) and assuming the sphere touches both top and bottom that makes the radius 6 so your equation is

SA=4πr^2

SA=4*π*6^2

SA=4*π*36

SA=4*113.09

SA=452.389

then rounded up to 452.39, that is your answer
