<h2>Answer:</h2>

A.

Let Annie's weight be = a

Let Benjie's weighs = b

Let Carmen's weight be = c

One day Annie weighed 24 ounces more than Benjie, equation forms:

a=b+24        ......(1)

Benjie weighed 3 1/4 pounds less than Carmen.  

In ounces:

1 pound = 16 ounces

\frac{13}{4} pounds = \frac{13}{4}\times16=52 ounces

b=c-52  or

c=b+52    ......(2)

Now adding (1) and (2), we get

a+b=b+24+c-52

=> a=c-28

This gives  Annie weighs 28 ounces less than Carmen.

B.

We cannot know anyone's actual weight, as we only know their relative weights.

Petra jogs 2 miles in 24 mins. at this rate how long would it take her to jog 7 miles?
Wewaii [24]
The answer would be 84 because 2miles is equal to 24 minutes so you would break that in half down to one mile. One mile would be 12 minutes. So you would multiply 12 times 7 which equals 84 which would be your answer.
