Part A: Virginia earned $14 walking her neighbors' dogs on Saturday. She earned some extra money on Sunday doing the same thing. Write an expression with a variable that shows the total amount of money Virginia earned Saturday and Sunday. Part B: Virginia was able to walk 2 less than twice as many dogs as her friend Alicia. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of dogs Virginia walked compared with Alicia.

Part A: V = 14y; Part B: y = 2x - 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Virginia

 Let y = the number of dogs Virginia walked

and V = the money Virginia earned. Then

     V = 14y

Part B: Alicia

Let x = the number of dogs Alicia walked. Then  

    2x = twice the number of dogs Alicia walked and

2x - 2 = two less than twice the number of dogs Alicia walked. Then

      y = 2x - 2

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.

answer: a and b
