i'm answering this question because i know the answer, but next time, please refer to the mathematics board c:
x/10 represents how many pills to give the dog per day out of 10mg. 
9x/10 represents the total amount of pills for the week. 
the expression represents the amount of pills the dog has eaten in one week.
