Respuesta :
The dog is 8 years old because If you take 8 and multiply it by 2 you get 16 and then you subtract 5 and you get 11 years old or the cats age
Let the dog's age be called x.
From the given statement, the following equation can be framed
Cat's age = 2*x -5
We are given to know that Cat's age is 11 years
So, we have:
11 = 2x -5
2x = 16
x = 16/2
x = 8
Dog's age = 8 years
