Fluffy the cat is 3 years older than scuffy the dog. six less than five times scruffy's age is one more than three times fluffy's age. how old is each animal?

fluffy is 11 years old

Scuffy is 8 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the present age of Fluffy the cat.

Let y represent the present age of Scuffy the dog.

Fluffy the cat is 3 years older than Scuffy the dog. This means that

x = y + 3 - - - - - -- - - - - 1

Six less than five times Scruffy's age is one more than three times Fluffy's age. This means that

5y - 6 = 3x + 1

5y - 3x = 1 + 6

5y - 3x = 7 - - - - - - - - - -2

Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, it becomes

5y - 3(y + 3) = 7

5y - 3y - 9 = 7

5y - 3y = 7 + 9

2y = 16

y = 16/2 = 8

x = y + 3

x = 8 + 3 = 11
