Answer:
Total number of puppies in the litter = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of yellow puppies in the litter = y
And the number of black puppies in the litter = b
If there was one less black puppy, ratio of yellow to black puppies = 

2(b - 1) = 3y
3y - 2b = -2 -----(1)
If there was one more black puppy, ratio of yellow puppies to black puppies = 

2y = b + 1
2y - b = 1 -------(2)
Equation (1) - 2× equation (2)
(3y - 2b) - 2(2y - b) = -2 - 2
3y - 4y - 2b + 2b = -4
y = 4
From equation (1),
3×4 - 2b = -2
12 - 2b = -2
-2b = -14
b = 7
Total number of puppies in the litter = 7 + 4 = 11

Answer:
The answer to your question is:
a) C = 2g + 155c
b) g = 25 grapes
c) c = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
grapes = g = 2 calories
cheese = c = 155 calories
a) Equation, we consider the amount of grapes and the calores given.
Total calories = C = 2g + 155c
b) We consider that the slices of cheese stays the same
2g + 155 = 205
2g = 205 -155
2g = 50
g = 50/2 = 25 grapes
c) Then the number of grapes stays the same
2(25) + 155c = 515
50 + 155c = 515
155c = 515 - 50
155c = 465
c = 465/155
c = 3 slices of cheese
B. Its suggesting something bigger than -5
