if jake loses 32 pounds , he will weigh twice as much as his sister . together they now weigh 212 pounds . what is jake ’ s present weight , in pounds ?
lets say j is the weight of jack and s is the wt of his sister . if he loses 32 pounds , he s twice as heavy as his sister . j - 32 = 2 * s also , together they weight 212 pounds j + s = 212 solvong the 2 equation , we get j = 152 pounds ! d
add(multiply(divide(subtract(212, 32), const_3), const_2), 32)
