    Let's assume that the cost for walking a small dog is x, and a large dog is 2x.

    Set up the following equation and solve:

    10x+5 (2x) = 100

    10x+10x=100

    20x=100

    x=5

    So for each small dog she walks she should charge $5 and for each large dog she walks she should charge $10.
