Question 929173: Brando is 3 lbs heavier than Elliana. Keijay is 6 lbs heavier than Elliana, If you add up their weight, you will get 159. How heavy is Keijay? Answer by EdenWolf(517) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x = Elliana's weight, x+3=Brando's weight, and x + 6 = Keijay's weight. Set up an equation.
x+x+3+x+6=159
Solve for x.
3x+3+6=159
3x+9=159
3x=150
x=50
Now add 6 to 50 to get 56. So Keijay's weight is 56 lbs.
