Answer:


15+x\leq 25

So,
x\leq 10

Explanation:

Boston Terriers weigh up to 25 lb.

Suppose a puppy of this breed weighs 15 pounds.

Let the puppy can weigh 'x' pounds more.

So,
x=25-15=10

But as it is given the maximum weight can be 25 pounds, so the puppy can weigh a maximum of 10 pounds more.

Given by :


15+x\leq 25

So,
x\leq 10
