You can put this solution on YOUR website! A 12-pound puppy is gaining weight at a rate of 2/3 lb per week. How much more time will it take for the puppy's weight to exceed 37 lb
how do I set this up?
-----------------------------------
weight = 12 + (2/3)x, where x is the number of weeks
--------------------
Inequality:
Solve 12 + (2/3)x > 37
(2/3)x > 25
2x > 75
x > 37.5
