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. :)

Show work and explain. Which is better: 15 ounces for $1.79 or 12 ounces for $1.49?
Leokris [45]
Find the prices per ounce by dividing the dollars by the number of ounces:-

1.79 / 15 = 0.1193 dollars  per ounce

1.49 / 12 =  0.1242 dollars per ounce


So the first  one is the better buy.
