Answer: 22.5 . The weight of the elephant is "22.5 times greater" than the weight of the lion.
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
(weight of lion) * (x) = (eight of the elephant) ; Solve for "x" .
_____________________________________________________
→ Divide each side of the equation by "(weight of lion)" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
→ (weight of lion)*(x) / (weight of lion) = (weight of the elephant) /
(weight of lion) ;
________________________________________________________
→ x = (weight of the elephant) / (weight of lion) ;
__________________________________________________________
→ Plug in our "given values" ; and solve for "x" ;
__________________________________________________________
→ x = (<span>9*10</span>³) / (4*10²) = (9*10⁽³⁻²⁾) / 4 = (9*10¹) / 4 ;
__________________________________________________________
→ x = 90 /4 = 25/2 = 22.5 ; which is our answer.

x= 6
y= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply top by 2 then eliminate
I did the PEMDAS method (P= parentheses, E= exponents, M= multiplication, D = Division, A= addition, S = subtraction.)
First I did what’s inside the parentheses, (6x2) and got 12.
Then I divided 16 by 22 and received 0.72.
I added 0.72 with 12 and the result was 12.72.
Last step was to subtract 12.72 - 8 and that equals 4.72
