Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.

Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is

x + 1125

After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that

(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)

x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500

10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500

9x = 675

x = 675/9

x = 75

Porky's current weight is

75 + 50 = 125 lbs

Kobe's current weight is

(75 + 1125) + 50

= 1250 lbs
