Answer:

C. Greg weighs 180 pounds, and Justin weighs 165 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

let G be the weight of Greg and J be the weight of Justin

G -15=J

G/2 +75=J

G =J+15       (1)

G+150=2J.  (2)

If We substitute G by J+15 in equation (2) we will get:

G =J+15

J+15+150=2J

G =J+15

J+15+150=2J

G =J+15

J+165=2J

then J=165 and G=165+15=180

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

12 Pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of the secret blend is 90/27. When there is only 40 pounds of gazebo, your proportion looks like this:  40/X. X being pounds of Kona. When you are to simplify 90/27 you're left with 10/3. Cross multiply 10/3 and 40/X to and simply to get 10x = 120, leaving you with 12 as your final answer. Hope this explanation helps.
