Answer:

She spends 111 minutes doing cardio workouts and 39 minutes doing weight training

Step-by-step explanation:

Call the time she spend on cardio workouts : a
And the time she spend on weight training : b

We have : a + b = 150
                 a - b = 72
Add them together, we get : a + b + (a-b) -> a+ b + a - b = 150 + 72 = 222
                                                                      = 2a
=> 2a = 222, and we have a = 111
=> b = 150 - 111 = 39

Hope this helps :)
