Answer:

x = -3    y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y + 3

x - 3 = y

-2x + 4(x - 3) = -18

-2x + 4x - 12 = -18

2x = -6

x = -3

x = y + 3

-3 = y + 3

-6 = y

Answer:

x = -3 ; y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y + 3

-2x + 4y = -18

-2(y+3) + 4y = -18

-2y -6 + 4y = -18

2y = -12

y = -6

x = -6+3

x = -3

The ratio of dogs to cats in a zoo choir is 4 : 3. There are 6 more dogs than cats. If another 2 cats join the choir, what will
Fofino [41]

Answer:

6:5

Step-by-step explanation:

c = number of cats

d = number of dogs

d = c+6

Set up a ratio:

4/3 = d/c

Then replace d with c+6, so your equation only has one variable.

\frac{4}{3} = \frac{c+6}{c}

Cross multiply

4c = 3(c+6)

Multiply everything in the parentheses by 3.

4c = 3c + 18

Subtract 3c from both sides

4c - 3c = 18

c = 18

d = c + 6 = 18 + 6 = 24

If 2 more cats join, then you will have 20 cats and 24 dogs, so the ratio of dogs to cats will now be 24:20.  Divide each side by 4 for a ratio of 6:5.
