<h3>Further Explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

A boxer needs to lose 3\frac{1}{2} kg

In three weeks he lost 55.5 kg - 53.8 kg

<u>Question:</u>

How many kilograms must the boxer lose in the final week to be able to compete as a flyweight?

He needs to lose 3\frac{1}{2} kg, we can change it into decimal which is 3.5 kg.

Weight he lost in 3 weeks

\boxed {= 55.5 - 53.8 }\\\boxed {= 1.7 kg }\\

In the final week he needs to lose:

\boxed { = 3.5 - 1.7 }\\\boxed {= 1.8 kg }

So, in the final week the boxer needs to lose 1.8 kg

Answer:

The weight need to lose in final weeks is 1.8 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

A boxer needs to lose 3 1/2 kg in a month to be able to compete as a flyweight

so, weight need to lose

=3\frac{1}{2}kg

=3.5kg

In three weeks, he lovers his weight from 55.5 kg to 53.8 kg

so, lost weight is

=55.5-53.8kg

=1.7kg

So,

weight need to lose in final weeks = (weight need to lose)-( lost weight)

we can plug values

and we get

weight need to lose in final weeks is

=3.5-1.7

=1.8kg

You use 4 gallons of water on 14 plants in your garden.At this rate, how much water will it take to water 35 plants?
Naddika [18.5K]

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

4 gallons --------------> 14 plants

x --------------------------> 35 plants

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

x = (\frac{35}{14}) * (4)\\x = 10

therefore, 10 gallons are needed to irrigate 35 plants.

Answer:

it will take 10 gallons to water 35 plants

A plumber charges a flat fee of $76 to visit a home and examine a clogged drain. The plumber charges an additional $24 per hour
prisoha [69]

Answer:

(a) 12 hours

(b) $220

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) First we plug in $364 for C

C=76+24h

364=76+24h

Subtract 76 from both sides

24h=288

Divide both sides by 24

h=12

She spent 12 hours fixing the drain

(b) First we plug 6 hours in for h

C=76+24(6)

Multiply it out

C=76+144

Add

C=220

It costs $220 for fixing a drain that takes 6 hours
