Answer:

a. The total weight

b. 2 times the weight of Jet

c. The weight of Fido

d. The total weight

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Fido weighs 10 pounds more than Jet and together they weigh 46 pounds. So, if j represents Jet's weight, the bar model is:

Now, we can answer each part as:

a. 46 represents the total weight of the small dogs

b. 2j represents 2 times the weight of Jet

c. j + 10 represents the weight of Fido because its weight is the weight of Jet j added to 10.

d. 2j + 10 also represents the sum of the weights of the small dogs.

So, the answers are:

a. The total weight

b. 2 times the weight of Jet

c. The weight of Fido

d. The total weight
