The weight of sean's puppy is 4 pounds more than 2 times it's weight, in pounds, of jay's puppy. if sean's puppy weighs 24 pounds, what is the weight, in pounds, of jay's puppy

The weight of the Jay's puppy be 10 pounds .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the weight, in pounds, of Jay's puppy be x.

As given

The weight of Sean's puppy is 4 pounds more than 2 times it's weight, in pounds, of Jay's puppy.

Weight of the Sean's puppy = 4 + 2x

As given

If Sean's puppy weighs 24 pounds .

4 + 2x = 24

2x = 24 - 4

2x = 20

x = 10

Therefore the weight of the Jay's puppy be 10 pounds .

step-by-step explanation:

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
