A pet store currently has a total of 45 cats and dogs. There are 7 more cats than dogs. Find the number of cats and dogs in the store. Write and solve a system of equations that represents the situation. Interpret the solution


Sagot :

c= cat d=dog
(7+c) + d =45
-7              -7
c+d= 38/2 = 19 
so there are 19 dogs and 26 cats (19+7)
