Okay, so total dogs are 49.
So we know if x=large dogs and y=small dogs, then x+y=49.
Next we are told that there are 36 MORE small dogs than large dogs. We can take that more meaning addition, and x being our value for large dogs. So y=x+36.
After that we now know what value we can plug in for y. So x+x+36=49.
We can then simplify it to 2x+36=49.
Subtracting the 36 from both sides, leaves you with 2x=13.
Followed by dividing both sides by 2, gives you x=6.5. Or 6.5 large dogs.
Now we can plug this into our formula for the small dogs (y=x+36) to give us y=6.5+36, which simplifies to y=42.5. Or 42.5 small dogs. Which is our answer.
We can double check it by adding the small and large dogs together, 6.5+42.5, which gives us 49, our total entries.
Answer:
$19.50
Step-by-step explanation:
You can set up a simple equation where t-shirts are represented by t and cost by c.
$78=4t.
To solve this equation, you want to get the variable isolated. To do this divide four on both sides since the t is multiplied by 4 and to undo multiplication, you divide. So you divide 4t by four, which gets you 1t, and then you divide 78 by 4 (because whatever you do to one side you have to do it to the other) which gives you 19.5. So the remaining equation is
$19.50=1t
And since t represents t-shirts, the equation is saying that $19.50 is equal to one t-shirt.
The bank or financial institution can give you a loan, which is the term for borrowing money.
