for each cat and $10 for each dog. They washed 68 animals altogether and

made a total of $487 after they had paid out $85 for shampoo and the

location. How many of each type of animal did they wash?

The team washed 27 cats and 41 dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

        ...equation (iii)

Plugging the value of x from (iii) to (i).
