Barky's animal shelter has a total of 15
Chihuahuas and Yorkies. There are four
times as many Chihuahuas as Yorkies.
Using c for Chihuahuas and y for Yorkies,
determine which equation may be
used to represent this situation.
c=4+y
y=4+c
y=4c
c=4y

Respuesta :

Answer:

c = 4y

Step-by-step explanation:

Are there more, Chihuahuas or Yorkies?

Does  the word 'times' mean add, subtract, multiply or divide?

The way I look at it,  there are more Chihuahuas and 'times' means multiply.  Do you agree?

Therefore, I need to multiply 4 times the no. of Yorkies to get the no. of Chihuahuas

So,  c = 4y

Now, I don't see an equation in the list to choose from.  So, I don't know what to do from here.  I am guessing that c = 4y is what you want.
