Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter D. 30 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

increase = 50%

final weighed = 45 pounds

Process

1.- Use proportions to solve this problem. 45 pounds will be 150% (the initial 100% plus an increase of 50%).

                       45 pounds ------------------ 150%

                          x  pounds -----------------  100%

                          x = (100 x 45)/150

                          x = 4500/150

Result

                         x = 30 pounds

Given the following formula, solve for I.<br> P =<br> 2(1 + b)
patriot [66]

Answer:  l=\dfrac{P}{2}-b

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

P = 2(l + b)

Divide both sides by 2:

\dfrac{P}{2}=l+b

Subtract b from both sides:

\dfrac{P}{2}-b=l

<em>Note: You can also multiply b by  </em>\frac{2}{2}<em> if you want the left side to be one fraction.</em>

\dfrac{P}{2}-\bigg(\dfrac{2}{2}\bigg)b=l\\\\\\\dfrac{P-2b}{2}=l
