.Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The patient loses 1 kg every week for 5 weeks.

1 kg = 2.2 lbs

Therefore the patient loses 2.2 lbs every week for 5 weeks.

a) The weight of the patient after 5 weeks = 245 lbs. - (5 weeks)(2.2 lbs per week)

The weight of the patient after 5 weeks = 245 lbs. - 11 lbs. = 234 lbs.

b) The weight of the patient after 5 weeks = 245 lbs. - 11 lbs. = 234 lbs.

1 kg = 2.2 lbs.

234 lbs. = 234 lbs. * 1 kg per 2.2 lbs. = 106.36 kg
