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. :)

Write each fraction as an expression with negative exponents.
Artemon [7]
The answer is w⁻²/v⁻².

v/w raised to the second power is (v/w)²

(v/w)² = v²/w²

Since xᵃ = 1/x⁻ᵃ, then v²/w² = 1/v⁻²w²

Since 1/xᵃ = x⁻ᵃ, then 1/v⁻²w² = w⁻²/v⁻²

A factory makes 1200 shirts every 6 hours.the factory makes shirts for 9 hours a workday. what is the fewest number of workdays
Dominik [7]
1. Divide the target number of shirts, 12,600 by the company's rate of making the shirts. That is,
                                 number of hours = 12,600 shirts/ (1200 shirts/6 hours)
                                                               = 63 hours
2. Determine the number of workdays for them to complete the shirts by dividing 63 hours by 9 hours/workday. This will give us an answer of 7 workdays.
