2x+10+x=73
3x+10=73
3x=63
x=21
dogs: x
dogs: 21
cats: 2x+10
cats: 52
Check answer:

There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)
X + (x + 2) + ( x + 4) + (x + 6)
----------------------------------- = 15
4
4x + 12
--------- = 15
4
Multiply by 4 on both sides
4x + 12 = 60
subtract 12 from both sides
4x = 48
divide by 4 on each side
x = 12
x + 2 = 14
x + 4 = 16
x + 6 = 18
