Lets take Gregs weight as “x”. This means that Justins weight is x-15, and x/2 = (x-15)-75.

If we take that last equation, lets combine like terms:

x/2 = x - 15 - 75
x/2 = x - 90
Now multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction
x = 2x - 180
Subtract 2x from both sides
x - 2x = -180
-x = -180
x = 180 — this is Gregs weight

Justins weight is x-15, so 180-15, which is 165 pounds. Hope this helped.

Why did the women of Seneca Falls choose to echo the language in the Declaration of Independence? Write one sentence to explain
sveta [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The women of the Seneca Falls Convention choose to echo the language of the Declaration of Independence for multiple reasons including:

A) Evoke an emotional response- The Declaration of Independence is often referred to in important speeches as a way to remind Americans of the reasoning for why we became a free nation during the late 18th century.

B) Show that they deserve similar rights to men- The Declaration of Independence says that "all men" are created equal. The women of this convention changed that wording to say that all people are equally and deserve equal treatment in the eyes of the law.
