Answer:
If you really meant that the number of dogs is 12 greater than 3 times the number of cats then:
3 cats
Step-by-step explanation:
21= number of dogs
c = number of cats
21 = 12 + (3c)
3c = 9
c = 3

Answer:
The equation is y = 4x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation to this table, pick two ordered pairs and use the slope formula to find the slope. For this we'll use (4, 21) and (8, 37).
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (37 - 21)(8 - 4)
m = 16/4
m = 4
Now we can use that slope along with any point in point-slope form to find the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 21 = 4(x - 4)
y - 21 = 4x - 16
y = 4x + 5
Absolute Value
Absolute Value
means ...
... only how far a number is from zero:
<span>
<span><span>
</span>
<span>
<span>
"6" is 6 away from zero,
and "−6" is also 6 away from zero.
So the absolute value of 6 is 6,
and the absolute value of −6 is also 6 </span>
</span>
</span></span>
More Examples:
<span><span>The absolute value of −9 is 9</span><span>The absolute value of 3 is 3</span><span>The absolute value of 0 is 0</span><span>The absolute value of −156 is 156</span></span>
No Negatives!
So in practice "absolute value" means to remove any negative
sign in front of a number, and to think of all numbers as positive (or
zero).
Absolute Value Symbol
To show that we want the absolute value of something, we put
"|" marks either side (they are called "bars" and are found on the right
side of a keyboard), like these examples:
<span>
<span><span>
|−5| = 5
|7| = 7
</span>
</span></span>
Sometimes absolute value is also written as "abs()", so abs(−1) = 1 is the same as <span>|−1| = 1</span>
