Answer:
where is the rest of the question
Step-by-step explanation:
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
Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money
we now that
<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1
and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2
</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks
the answer is
4 weeks
