Question

In the heavyweight class of professional wresythe junior weight limit is 190pounds this is 15pounds heavier than the light heavyweight limit write and solve an equation to find the weight limit of the light heavyweight class

Answer 1

In order to determine the weight of the light heavyweight class, which we will denote by L, we must reduce the limit of the junior class, which we will denote by J, by 15 lbs. The equation becomes:

L = J - 15

Now, we plug in the value of J, to get:
L = 190 - 15
L = 175

The limit of the light heavyweight class is 175 pounds.
