First, let's write an equation for the situation.
Jim's weight is 30 pounds less than Tom's, so his weight is:
n - 30
If Tom's and Jim's weights add to 210:
n + (n - 30) = 210
Solve for n:
2n - 30 = 210
2n = 240
n = 120
Tom weighs 120 pounds.
Answer:
1200
Step-by-step explanation:
n = 0.08 r + 7400
n = 7496, r = ?
7496 = 0.08r + 7400
7496 - 7400 = 0.08r
96 = 0.08r
r = 96/0.08
r = 1200
