After losing 22 lb in each of the first two
weeks of May and gaining 19 lb in each of
the next two weeks, Bob's piglet weighed
110 lb. How much did his piglet weigh on
May 1?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Weight on 1 may = 104 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight on last may = 110 lb

Weight gain for to week = 2 x 19 = 38 lb

Weight lose for to week = 2 x 22 = 44 lb

Find:

Weight on 1 may

Computation:

Weight on 1 may = Weight on last may - Weight gain for to week + Weight lose for to week

Weight on 1 may = 110 - 44 + 38

Weight on 1 may = 104 lb
