just reposting :):) i still don't really get it.
"Tweedledum says: the sum of your weight and twice mine is 361 lbs.
Tweedledee says: contrariwise, the sum of your weight and twice mine is 362 lbs
if both are right how much do they weigh together?"
i got this part, but the next part i can't figure out:
"find tweedledum's and tweedledee's weights in problem 1."
please help,

Mel, I told you already-- 120 and 121. How much they weigh together would be one number-- 141, I guess. I actually don't know how you would figure that part out, but the second part is correct.
erg i still don't really get it. oh well
Sorry... I tried my best to explain it. Did you look back at my other explanation to the first time you asked it? That might help. It's basically the way our teacher showed us.
yeah.........................
