70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.
2 x 2.5 = 5 cups
Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.
By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.
Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.
Answer: Yes it is
Step-by-step explanation: 2(3p) = 2 x 3p = 6p
8p - 2p = 6p
For this case we have the following system of equations:
We can write a system of equivalent equations.
For this, it is enough to multiply one of the two equations by a scalar.
Multiplying the equation 1 by 2, we have:
Therefore, the new system of equations is:
Answer:
A system that is equivalent is:
D) 
Answer:4 dozens of video games would cost $1956
Step-by-step explanation:
An electronic store prices 3 dozen video games at a total of 1467. A dozen of video games is 12. Therefore, the total number of video games whose cost is 1467 is 12 × 3 = 36
if each video game costs the same amount, then the cost of one video game would be
1467/36 = $40.75
The total number of video games in 4 dozens of video game would be
4 × 12 = 48
Therefore, the total cost of 48 video games would be
48 × 40.75 = $1956
