The three slices are each approximately 1/9 pound in weight, and, since 2/9 is less than 1/4, he can eat 2 whole slices and be okay. If he wants to eat partial slices, then he could eat 2 1/4 slices, as each slice weighs 4/36 pounds, so 2 slices would equal 8/36 pounds, leaving 1/36 pound left over in his diet, which is a quarter of the third slice.

Answer:
The equation is y=4/3x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
You move the were the decimal to the 2 places to the right and its 3.4%
Notice that the terms in parentheses on both sides of the equation are added to 4.
(3x + 4) + 4 = (5x - 4) + 4
So we can set the equation as.
3x + 4 = 5x - 4
Subtract 3x on both sides of equation.
4 = 2x - 4
Add 4 on both sides of equation.
8 = 2x
Divide both sides of equation by 2.
4 = x
4 is the only value that satisfies the statement.
