Question

se system of equations to solve the problem below. ith an diets. apollo currently weighs 108 kg and is gaining 2 kg per month. zaire c ng 3 kg per month. in how many months will they weigh the same?
\\(\

$$\begin{cases}3x - 9y = 3 \\\\ 2x = 16 - y\\end{cases}$$

\\)

Explanation:

It appears part of the problem text is cut off. However, I can solve the provided system of equations:

Step1: Rearrange second equation

$y = 16 - 2x$

Step2: Substitute $y$ into first equation

$3x - 9(16 - 2x) = 3$

Step3: Expand and simplify

$3x - 144 + 18x = 3$
$21x = 147$

Step4: Solve for $x$

$x = \frac{147}{21} = 7$

Step5: Substitute $x$ to find $y$

$y = 16 - 2(7) = 16 - 14 = 2$

Answer:

$x=7$, $y=2$

Additionally, for the partially visible weight problem: it seems there is missing information about the second person's starting weight and weight change rate. Please provide the full details of that problem so I can assist with it as well.
