How many extra calories does Scott eat each week?

If Scott continued his pattern, how much weight might he gain each week? pounds

a. No b. 3500 c. 1-2 pounds per week

Explanation:

If we use the calorie recommendation of 2000 calories a day as a gauge, we find that he eats on average 3000 calories a day. If you eat 500-1000 calories more than what you should be eating each day, every week, you will gain 1-2 pounds per week

Yes, 24,500 each week, 7 pounds each week

Explanation: 21,000x7=147,000, 17,500x7=122,500, 147,000-122500=24,500 so then the pounds is converted so 24,500 pounds equals to 7 pounds.
