Make two equations representing the position of each animal, p and k, for the puppy and kitten respectively.
p=25t and k=180+20t
The puppy will catch the kitten when p=k so we can say:
25t=180+20t subtract 20t from both sides
5t=180 divide both sides by 5
t=36
So the puppy will catch the kitten after 36 seconds.
Answer:
Hi
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi?
D+n=25 subtract d from both sides *(if your wondering what d and n are it stands for Dimes and Nickels)* n=25-d
0.10d+0.05= 1.85
0.10d+0.05(25-d)= 1.85
0.10d+1.25-0.05d= 1.85
0.05d = 0.60

My answer: He has 12 dimes (d=12) and 25-12=13 so 13 nickels.. Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
22 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y be the two numbers we are looking for:
The statement “their sum is 29” means x + y = 29
The statement “their difference is 15” means x - y = 15
we get this system:
x + y = 29 (1)
x - y = 15 (2)
Let’s solve it :
(1) + (2) ⇒ x + y + x - y = 29 + 15 ⇒ 2x = 44 ⇒ x = 44/2 = 22
Now we replace x by 22 in equation (1) :
22 + y = 29 ⇒ y = 29 - 22 = 7
