Answer:
y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the equation y = kx
Plug in x and y to find k:
2 = k(16)
1/8 = k
Then, plug in 1/8 as k and 96 as x to find y:
y = 1/8(96)
y = 12
First you convert kilograms to pounds,
1 kilogram = 2.205 pounds
next you times the number of pounds per kilogram by the number of kilograms given that need to be turned into pounds.
80 times 2.205 = 176.4
next you subtract to get the answer
176.4 - 135= 41.4
so Ms. Johnson weighs 41.4 pounds less than herr husband

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let J = Jerry's age
Let M = Mary's age = 2J
M - 16 = J + 16
Substitute 2J for Mary's age
2J - 16 = J + 16
2J - J - 16 = 16
J = 16 + 16
J = 32
Jerry is 32.
Mary is twice as old as Jerry.
Mary is 2(32) = 64
25% is a fourth of something so first round $34.99 to about $35 and just get one fouth of it which would be a little less than $9 but if you put it into the calculator it will tell you that it is about $8.75 (to calculate using the calculator you need to chane the percentage to a decimal and multiply it)
