Answer: y - 10.6 = 9(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
X = Leonard, y = Liam
x = y + 7
3x + 2y = 96
now we sub
3(y + 7) + 2y = 96
3y + 21 + 2y = 96
5y = 96 - 21
5y = 75
y = 15
x = y + 7
x = 15 + 7
x = 22
<span>Liam has 15 and Leonard has 22. </span>
To find the difference in weights from two years ago, you will need to combine the 2 differences from the two years.
-1.56 and 0.73 becomes -1.56 + 0.73.
To add a positive and a negative number you will subtract the absolute values of the numbers AND use the sign of the number with the bigger absolute value (negative) in your answer.
|-1.56| - |0.73|
1.56 - 0.73 = 0.83
-0.83
The cat lost 0.83 (-0.83) pounds over 2 years.
