Answer:

p = 4

j = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Joey = j

Pat = p

j = p + 17

(j+6) = 2*(p + 6) + 7      Simplify this. Remove the brackets.

j + 6 = 2p + 12 + 7        combine like terms    

j + 6 = 2p + 19               Subtract 6 from both sides

j +6-6 = 2p +19-6

j = 2p + 13

================

Equation j = 2p + 13 and j = p + 17

2p + 13 = p + 17                 Subtract p from both sides

2p-p+13 =p-p + 17

p + 13 = 17                         Subtract 13 from both sides

p = 17-13

p = 4

============

j = p + 17

j = 4 + 17

j = 21

Answer:

Joey is 21; Pat is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement supports two equations in Joey's age (j) and Pat's age (p):

j - p = 17

(j +6) -2(p +6) = 7

Subtracting the second equation from the first, we have ...

(j -p) -((j +6) -2(p +6)) = (17) -(7)

p +6 = 10 . . . . . simplify

p = 4 . . . . . . . . . subtract 6

J = 17 +4 = 21

Joey is 21; Pat is 4.

Choose the estimate closest to an average​ person's weight: 8​kg, 80​kg, or 800 kg.
dexar [7]

The estimate closest to an average​ person's weight is 80​kg

<h3>How to determine the estimate?</h3>

The weights are given as:

8 kg, 80 kg and 800 kg

To answer this question, I will assume that a person means an adult

An adult that weighs 8 kg is very much under weight

Because the average weight of a person is around 60 to 90 kg

Hence, the estimate closest to an average​ person's weight is 80​kg
