y + (2x -12) = 180 (since they are supplementary angles)
(2x-12) = 96 ( since they are alternate exterior angle)
2x = 96 + 12
2x = 108
x = 108/2
x = 54.
y+( 2x-12)=180
y+(2× 54 -12) = 180
y + (108-12) = 180
y + 96 = 180
y= 180-96
y = 84.
Answer:
y = 4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
m = y-y/x-x
m = 6-(-2)/2-0
m = 8/2
m = 4
Use a system of equations.
(x=# of small dogs, y=# of big dogs)
x+y=9 (times by -5) -5x-5y=-45
5x+8y=51
Then add the equations together and the x's cancel.
3y=6
y=2
So he walked 2 big dogs and 7 little dogs.
