Tina has been dieting for a total of 13 weeks she lost 3 pounds on the first week of her diet we gained back a pound on the second week on each meaning week of her diet she lost 2 pounds how many pounds has Tina lost it all?

A.26 lbs
B.20 lbs
C.22 lbs
D.24 lbs

Respuesta :

Week 1 she lost 3 pounds

week 2 she gained 1 pound

so in the first 2 weeks she lost 3-1 = 2 pounds total.

13 weeks - 2 weeks = 11 weeks left.

Each of those weeks she lost 2 pounds, so 11 weeks x 2 pounds = 22 total pounds in 11 weeks.

22 pounds +2 pounds = 24 total pounds lost in 13 weeks.

The answer is D.
