The mathematical expression 150 - 137 = - 13 pounds is the most appropriate because it includes all the data necessary to express the weight loss over 5 weeks.

To know the weight lost it is necessary to do the following mathematical operations:

1. Subtract the starting weight from the ending weight.

  • 150 - 137 = -13

The -13 means the weight lost during the first 5 weeks of going to the gym.

Note: Neither option is correct. The correct answer would be 150 - 137 = - 13 pounds; A cweight change is negative because it decreases weight.
