Roy weighs 150 pounds and plans to lose 1.5 pounds a week. Louis weighs 200 pounds and tries to lose 2.5 which equation shows when Roy and Luis will weigh the same

150 -1.5 x = 200- 2.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Roy's weight: 150 pounds, plans to lose 1.5 pounds a week

Louis’s weight: 200 pounds, plans to lose 2.5 pounds a week

If we use the variable "x" as the number of weeks, we have to multiply the number of weeks "x" by the pounds planned to lose in each case and subtract that number to the weight of each person.

The equation for Roy will be:

and for Louis:

Setting them equal:

150 -1.5 x = 200- 2.5x

The Equation shows when Roy and Luis will weigh the same.

don't know sorry bru

step-by-step explanation:

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!
