    She should charge $ 5 for small dog and $ 10 for large dog.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given,

    Leanne charges twice as much to walk a large dog as she does to walk a small dog.

    Number of large dogs = 5

    Number of small dogs = 10

    She wants to make $ 100.

    To find the charge of large dog and small dog for walk.

    Let,

    She charges $ x for small dog and $ 2x for large dog.

    According to the problem,

    5*2x + 10*x = 100

    or, 20x = 100

    or. x = 5

    Hence,

    She charges $ 5 for small dog and $ 2*5 = $ 10 for large dog.
