Identify two correct solutions to the equation W equals 250 plus 132.5 T.


T= 2, W = 515

T= 0 , W = 382.5

T=0, W = 250

T = 6, W = 780

T= 1, W= 250

Answer 1

Below in bold.

Explanation:

W = 250 + 132.5T

When T = 2, W = 250 + 2*132.5

= 250 + 265 = 515.g.

When T = 0, W = 250 + 132,5*0

= 250g.
