question

Use the story to complete the table.

Eddie walks his two dogs every day. He decided to start a dog-walking business by walking his neighbors' dogs as well.

Neighbors' dogs walked	1	2	3	4
Total dogs walked

Graph the data from the table.

solution

The total number of dogs that Eddie walks is always 2 more than the number of neighbors' dogs that he walks. So, you can find the total number of dogs that Eddie walks by adding 2 to the number of neighbors' dogs that he walks.

Find how many dogs Eddie walks when he walks 1 dog belonging to a neighbor.

Find how many dogs Eddie walks when he walks 2 dogs belonging to neighbors.

Find how many dogs Eddie walks when he walks 3 dogs belonging to neighbors.

Find how many dogs that Eddie walks when he walks 4 dogs belonging to neighbors.

Use the values to complete the table.

Neighbors' dogs walked	1	2	3	4
Total dogs walked	3	4	5	6

Use the table to write ordered pairs of numbers. In each pair, write the number of neighbors' dogs Eddie walks first and the total number of dogs that Eddie walks second.
