D = 2C
J = 1/3D
J = C - 1
J = 1/3D
J = 1/3(2C)
J = 2/3C
2/3C = C - 1
2/3C - 3/3C = -1
-1/3C = -1
C = -1 * -3
C = 3...there are 3 cats
J = C - 1
J = 3 - 1
J = 2.....there are 2 collars
The value of y would be C) 38 degrees because if the floor and the top of the stair are parallel, then that makes the diagonal line a transversal, therefore the 38 degree angle and y are alternate interior angles.
The equation for the graph is m=250-25w
