Answer:
y
=
7
/4
x
+
11
/4
Step-by-step explanation:
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:
1.7320508
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5 = 11
2x = 6
x = 3
y + 4 = 2x + 4
y + 4 = 2(3) + 4
y + 4 = 10
y = 6
answer
x = 3 and y = 6
Answer:
The width of Tyrone's actual patio is 16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
= 
If we look at what we know, we see that the scale tells us that 1 inch is proportional to 2 ft. What do we need to multiple 1 inch by to get 8 inches? 8. So, we multiply 2 feet by 8 to get the actual size of the patio which is 16 feet.
