A wrestler is trying to gain weight for an upcoming match. His current weight is 105. In the formula shown, W = weight, p = poun
ds and t = time(weeks). He has 6 weeks before his match and has a goal weight of 123 pounds. Determine the minimum number of pounds he must gain per week to meet his goal.
So first if you subtract 105 from 123, you get 18. Then if you divide 18 by 6 (the time he has left) you get 3. Therefore, he needs to gain 3 pounds a week.
