Cats to dogs means that the first number is cats and the second number is dogs. Thus, you have the ratios 2 cats to 5 dogs and 5 cats to 2 dogs which are different.

If they are both ratios of cats to dogs, with the ratio 2 to 5 it would mean there are 2.5x more dogs then there are cats, but with the ratio 5 to 2 it would mean there are 2.5x more cats than there are dogs, in which they are both different.

Answer:

the answer is 12 attendees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=the attendees & Let d=the cost

if the budget is $97 and the cost of the gala is represented by the equation d=7a+13, substitute the $97 for d

d=7a+13

97=7a+13

now take subtract 13 from both sides

97-13=7a+13-13

since the 13 cancels out on the right side it'll now read:

84=7a

to get a by itself you now divide 7 from both sides getting a by itself

84/7=7a/7

12=a

so the answer will be 12
