Optimistic Post: Your Dog Groomer Charges

How much does your favorite dog groomer charge based on your dog's weight?

What would the groomer charge if your bulldog weighs 60 lbs?

What would your dog weight if she charged $120?

Final answer:

If your bulldog weighs 60 lbs, the groomer would charge $65. If the groomer charged $120, your dog would weigh 115 lbs.

Explanation:

To understand the charges based on your dog's weight, let's break it down:

  • For dogs weighing 15 pounds and under, the charge is $35.
  • For dogs weighing between 15 and 45 pounds, the charge is $50.
  • For dogs weighing over 45 pounds, the charge is $50 plus an additional $1 for each pound over 45 lbs.

If your bulldog weighs 60 lbs, the groomer would charge $50 + (60 - 45) = $65.

To find the weight of your dog if the groomer charged $120, we use the equation: $120 = $50 + (x - 45).

Solving the equation, we get: $70 = x - 45. Adding 45 to both sides, we find x = 115.
