HELP PLEASE 10 POINTS AND BRAINLIST FOR ANSWER! What is the weight of a square if a triangle weighs 4 grams? Explain your reasoning

2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

One can see that the given diagram is that of a balancing scale, meanig that both sides are equal to each other. Therefore,  if one calls the weight of the triangle (t), then one can form an equation. Keep in mind that it is given that the square weighs (4) grams, and therefore, the square doesn't need a variable representation.

t + 4 + 4 = t + t + t + 4

Simplify,

t + 8 = 3t + 4

Inverse operations,

t + 8 = 3t + 4

   -4          -4

t + 4 = 3t

-t         -t

4 = 2t

/2   /2

2 = t

2 grames

Step-by-step explanation:

because they could drop even lower..

so, converting firstly the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then "adding".
