Question

Please help! This is due in a few minutes! Reese and Kevin have been working together to try and lose weight. Reese's weight loss can be modeled by the equation y = -4x + 203 where y is his total with weight and x is the number of weeks he has been working out. Kevin's weight loss progress is shown on the graph below. Who is losing weight at a faster rate? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

The answer is Kevin, Kevin is loosing weight faster

Explanation:

The reason its kevin is because Reese is loosing weight and his is -4 and Kevins number is -5 so it would be kevin for the answer.

Answer 2
