Issac's dog weighs 19 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be Issac's dog's weight

Translate the problem into an algebraic expression: x + (x + 12) = 50Simplify: 2x + 12 = 50Subtract 12 from each side, so it now looks like this: 2x = 38Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 19

I hope this helps!

77.44%

49.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12% leaks everyday, on the first day 12% would leak, leaving 100 - 125 = 88% of air

on the second day, 12% of 88% would leak = 0.88 x 0.12 = 0.1056

Air left on the second day = 88% - 10.56% = 77.44%

After a week = (100 - 12%)^7 = 49.87%
