Paws at play made a total of $1234 grooming 22 dogs. paws at play charges $43 to groom each small dog and $75 for each large dog. a. write a system of equations that can be used to determine the number of small and large dogs that were groomed. b. how many large dogs did paws at play groom?

Answer (a):

s + l = 22 ... (i)

43s + 75l = 1234 ... (ii)

Answer (b)

9 large dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Paws at Play made a total of $1234 grooming 22 dogs.

Paws at Play charges $43 to groom each small dog and;

$75 for each large dog.

Let the number of small dogs be 's'

And the number of large dogs be 'l'

A system of equations will be:

s + l = 22 ... (i)

43s + 75l = 1234 ... (ii)

Solving this set of simultaneous equations by elimination, we simply multiply (i) by 43 to get;

43s + 43l = 946 ... (i)

43s + 75l = 1234 ... (ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii) we get;

32l = 288 , l = = 9

So there are 9 large dogs.

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:

a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.

the answer is 844

step-by-step explanation:

it is 844 because if you add 836.50 + 7.5 you will get 844
