Answer:

Veronika's weight = 92 pounds

Kate's weight = 46 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Veronika's weight = x

Let Kate's weight = y

The sum of Veronika's and Kate's weight is 118 pounds.

x + y = 118

Veronika weighs 26 pounds more than Kate.

x = y + 26

How much do they weigh individually?

We substitute y + 26 for x in Equation 1

x + y = 118

y + 26 + y = 118

26 + 2y = 118

2y = 118 - 26

2y = 92

y = 92/2

y = 46 pounds

x = y + 26

x = 46 + 26

x = 92 pounds

Hence,

Veronika's weight = 92 pounds

Kate's weight = 46 pounds

Help ASAP will make brainliest please
MrMuchimi

Answer:

A: 5% High risk; 15% medium risk; 80% low risk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A will be the most appropriate because it follows the risk pyramid pattern that guides investors.

Now, in the risk pyramid, the low risk investment should be the biggest and should contain a large part of your assets since it will be low in risk and have good foreseeable returns. The medium risk investment should be the next biggest as it allows stable returns while capital appreciates. While the high risk return investment should be the lowest as it should consist of money you can lose and wouldn't really affect you.
