Answer:

Paul = 30 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

If Adam (A), Paul(P) and Jake(J) together they weigh 180 pounds (A+P+J=180); and Adam and Jake is 2:3 (2A=3J) then how much does paul weigh?

A+P+J=180, 2A=3J, J=60 we have; A=(3/2)J=(3/2)*60 → A=90, 90+P+60=180 →

P=180-90-60 → P=30

Reptile [31]

Answer:

t = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides.

  • 9 + t - 9 = 35 - 9

Step 2: Check if solution is correct.

  • 9 + 26 = 35
  • 35=35

Therefore, t = 26.
