Answer:

6,5g of protein

Step-by-step explanation:

80=4x + 9y

y=6 ( "6 grams of fat")

so: 80=4x+9.6

80-54= 4x

26/4=x

x(protein)= 6,5

Answer:

  6.5 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x that corresponds to the given value of y, put that y-value into the equation and solve for x.

  80 = 4x +9·6

  26 = 4x

  26/4 = x = 6.5

There are 6.5 grams of protein in the snack.

Describe how you could draw a diagram for a problem about finding the total length for two strings, 15 inches long and 7 inches
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Two strings are 15 inches and 7 inches long.

You could draw a diagram that has two rulers (that are longer than 12 inches).

Draw a piece of string that is exactly 15 inches on one ruler.
Draw another piece of string on the other ruler at exactly 7 inches.

Then you can find the total length of the two strings by adding 15 and 7 inches.
15 + 7 = 22

The total length of both the strings is 22 inches. You can draw a ruler and a piece of string on it at 22 inches.

What is the rate of change for the sequence shown below. (1,2) (2,2.5) (3,3) (4,3.5) (5,4)
Nataly [62]

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ordered pairs are: (1,2) (2,2.5) (3,3) (4,3.5) (5,4)

The corresponding sequence is :

2,2.5,3,3.5, 4,....

We can see that there is a common difference of d=0.5.

Better still we could use the slope formula:

m =  \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We substitute the point (1,2) and (2,2.5).

The rate of change of this sequence is:

m =  \frac{2.5 - 2}{2 - 1}  =  \frac{0.5}{1}  = 0.5
