When ryan was born, he weighed 7 pounds. at 6 months, he weighed 11.2 pounds. amanda weighed 6 pounds when she was born, and 12.9 pounds at 6 months. which baby had a greater percent increase in weight? explain.

The percent change in Ryan’s weight was 4.2/7, or 60%. The percent change in Amanda’s weight was 6.9/6 , or 115%. Amanda had a greater percent increase in weight.

The baby that had a greater percent increase in weight is Amanda.

Using this formula

Percent increase in weight=Pounds after 6 months-Pounds at birth/Pounds at birth×100

Where:

Ryan

Pounds at birth=7 pounds

Pounds after 6 months=11.2 pounds

Amanda

Pounds at birth=6 pounds

Pounds after 6 months=12.9 pounds

Let plug in the formula

Ryan Percent increase in weight=11.2-7/7 ×100

Ryan Percent increase in weight=4.2/7×100

Ryan Percent increase in weight=60%

Amanda Percent increase in weight=12.9-6/6 ×100

Amanda Percent increase in weight=6.9/6×100

Amanda Percent increase in weight=115%

Based on the above calculation the baby that had a greater percent increase in weight is Amanda reason been that Amanda has 115% which is higher than that of Ryan which is 60%.

Inconclusion the baby that had a greater percent increase in weight is Amanda.

x=30

step-by-step explanation:

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
