Question

2 the total weight of maurys three dogs is 60 pounds. the first dog weighs 25 pounds and the second dog weighs 20 pounds. circle the equation that represents this situation where t is the weight of the third dog. 60 = 25 - 20 - t 60 = 25 ÷ 20 + t 60 = 25 × 20 × t 60 = 25 + 20 + t

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the relationship between weights

The total weight of three dogs is the sum of the weights of each dog.

Step2: Write the equation

Let the weight of the third dog be \(T\). The first dog weighs \(25\) pounds, the second weighs \(20\) pounds, and the total weight is \(60\) pounds. So the equation is \(60 = 25+20 + T\)

Answer:

\(60 = 25 + 20+T\)
