Answer:

Athena weighs 6 pounds. (Zeus weighs 3 pounds).

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that A (Athena) + Z (Zeus) = 9. And we know that Zeus weighs three pounds less than Athena. Knowing this we can do
1 + 8 = 9
2 + 7 = 9
3 + 6 = 9
We can see that 6 and 3 equal 9 and 6 is 3 away from 3, getting us the answer that Athena weighs 6 pounds. :) I hope this helps! ^^

X + (X-3) = 9
2X -3 = 9
2X = 12
X = 6


X-3 = ?
6-3 = 3

One cat weighs 6 lbs and one weighs 3 lbs for total of 9 lbs. Athena weighs 6 lbs.

nirvana33 [79]
To simplify, we need to find a number that can divide both the numerator and denominator equally. Can you find a number that will do this? I can't. So it is already simplified.
