Answer:

2x+y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a line is y = mx+b where m is the lope and b is the y intercept

y = -2x+b

substitute the point into x and y

8 = -2(6) +b

8 = -12+b

Add 12 to each side

20 =b

y = -2x+20

Add 2x to each side

2x+y = 20

Answer:

27 of the pets are dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Real easy way to do this, treat 45 (the total) as 100. So, do 45/100 then multiply the result of that by 60, and you end up with 27.

45/100=0.45

0.45*60=27
