PLEASE HELP! Priya is with her mother at the zoo’s gorilla exhibit. Priya is studying the chart displayed beside the gorilla exhibit, which shows the name and weight of each gorilla. Use the information in the chart to answer the questions in this activity.

Gorilla Weight Plugged into True or False?
5a + 8 = 318
(pounds)
Sophia 318
George 417
Nancy 310
Hank 136
Paula 62
Gavin 24

Part A
Priya’s favorite gorillas are a mother named Sophia and her baby. The zoo attendant said that Sophia weighs 8 pounds more than 5 times her baby’s weight. To determine the baby gorilla’s weight, Priya can use the equation 5a + 8 = 318, where a is the weight of the baby gorilla. Plug the weight of each gorilla into the equation to check which value makes the equation true.
