Answer: 150 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let her initial weight be represented by x.
Since Shep had lost 16% of his weight, which was 24 pounds. Shep weight before he was put on a diet would be:
16% × x = 24
0.16 × x = 24
0.16x = 24
x = 24/0.16
x = 150 pounds
Answer:
x: $20 an hour independent variable
y: total amount dependent variable
y = $20x
60/10=6f/s
42/6=7f/s
7>6, so the person who walks 42 feet in 6 seconds is faster. :)
