Acat and dog stumble across a sleeping skunk. they run away from it in opposite directions- the dog at a speed of 6 feet per second and the cat at a speed of 9 feet per second. how long will it be until the pets are 165 yards apart?

Speed = Distance/Time

Cat's Speed 9ft/s

Dog's Speed 6ft/s

Let x be the distance travelled by the Cat,
the distance travelled by te dog =165 -x,
and t, the time spend

Cat's Speed 9ft/s =x/t

Dog's Speed 6ft/s =(165 - x)/t
Solving for t you will get t= 11 seconds

The point (5, 10) will work for the rule y=x+5.y= 10 x= 510=5+510=10therefore the ordered pair (5, 10) works for the rule
