Answer:

Ray weighed 150 pounds two years ago.

Step-by-step explanation:

11/100 = 16.5/x

11x = 16.5(100)

11x = 1,650

(11x)/11 = (1,650)/11

x = 150

What is m=6a+9ak solve for a

Burka [1]

m = 6a + 9ak

On the right side, factor ' 3a ' from the expression:

 m = 3a (2 + 3k)

Divide each side by (2 + 3k)

 m / (2 + 3k) = 3a

Divide each side by 3 :

 m / 3(2 + 3k) = a
