Question
Bubba weighed 163 pounds when he started college, and never really thought about his weight much. Then a funny thing
happened: he got super-busy, moderately poor, and started eating a lot of cheap fast food. He also started sleeping less and not
drinking enough water. The result? He started gaining weight.
Now let's study what it takes to lose weight. An average person can lose one pound if he burns 3500 calories more than he
consumes. Let's say that after reaching the 200-pound plateau, Bubba has had enough and decides to work on losing some
weight. The table shows his weight if a certain number of calories are burned.
