Part B

How many weeks will it take for the baby elephant to weigh 1197lbs?

Enter your equation, your answer, and your work or explanation in the space provided.

Part A: W= (1197- 209)/ 38

Part B: 26 Weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

We first need to subtract the 209lbs from the goal of 1197lbs. Now we have how many pounds we need to gain. Then we need to divide it by how many pounds we are gaining a week. Now we have how many weeks it will take

Part B:

W= (1197- 209)/ 38

W= 988/ 38

W= 26

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
