11% = 16.5
1% = 16.5 / 11
= 1.5
100% = 1.5 * 100
= 150. His weight two years ago was 150 pounds.

X + (x * .11) = x + 16.5
2x * .11 = x + 16.5
Subtract x from both sides.
x * .11 = 16.5
Divide by .11 on both sides.
x = 150

Ray weighed 150 pounds two years ago.

I need help with geometry:
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

6/18 = x/(20-x)

1/3 = x/(20-x) Multiply both sides by 20-x

(20-x)/3 = x Multiply both sides by 3

20-x = 3x Add x in both sides

20 = 4x Divide both sides by 4

5 = x
