The weight of Jane and Jessica was in the ratio of 8 : 9. Jane gained 2 kg while Jessica lost 4 kg. They then had the same weigh
postnew [5]

Answer:

  48 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relations can be used to write a system of equations for the two weights. Those can be solved to find Jane's weight.

__

<h3>setup</h3>

Let x and y represent Jane's and Jessica's original weight, respectively. The ratio of weights was ...

  x/y = 8/9

After the changes in weight, they were equal:

  x+2 = y-4

__

<h3>solution</h3>

Adding 4 to the second equation, we have an expression for y that can be substituted into the first equation.

  y = x +6 . . . . . . . . . . solve the second equation for y

  x/(x+6) = 8/9 . . . . . . substitute for y in the first equation

  9x = 8(x +6) . . . . . . . multiply by 9(x+6)

  x = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify and subtract 8x

Jane weighed 48 kg at first.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

The original difference in "ratio units" was 9-8 = 1 ratio unit. We find that this corresponds to 6 kg after the weight changes make the weights equal. Then 8 ratio units will be 8(6 kg) = 48 kg—Jane's original weight.

(This mental solution is virtually the same as the solution using equations shown above.)

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

They used 6 vans and 3 buses

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y= 9

13x + 40y= 198

x= 9 - y

13(9 - y) + 40y= 198

117 - 13y + 40y= 198

27y= 81

y= 3

9-3= 6
