70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.
2 x 2.5 = 5 cups
Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.
By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.
Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
3(3x-8)=4x+6
First you would distribute the 3 on the L side to the parenthasies
9x-24=4x+6
Then, you would subtract 4x from both sides because it is the smallest X value
5x-24=6
Add 24 to both sides (inverse operations)
5x=30
divide both sides by 5
x=6
