For this item, we let x be the number of hours she works out and y be the total number of bananas that she will be eating after the workout. The expression that best described the given above is,
y = 5 + 2x
5 is given as the y-intercept because of the initial condition.
The his makes no sense to me sorry just trying to get points 1.5
Indirect proof or contradiction
Are there choices to pick from?
Answer:
The answer should be <u>8-12x......if i take a wild guess out of your answer choices, would say C. </u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>-4 (-2+3x)</u>
<em>[carry over the -4 to (-2) and (3x) ]</em>
<u>8-12x</u>

Basically what you need to do is draw 4 congruent rectangles and 2 comgriemt squares (The six sides of a rectangular prism). The sum of the area of these six quadrilaterals should equal 96. This would be my thought process.
Step 1: Sketch a Rectangular Prism
Step 2: Make some educated guesses on some possible side measurements for the quadrilaterals that form the prism.
Step 3: Guess and Check until the amount equals 96.
So we can guess that the sides of the rectangle might equal 2 and 3 units.
This would be 6 for the area. Times 4 for each of the 4 Rectangles. (24) and add the area of the ends of the prism (2*2*2) which is 8 and you will get 32.
Since we are looking for a surface area of 96 and not 32, we can assume that a 3*2*2 prism is not what we need. So we can try again with other values.
Let's try 6*3*3. 6*3*4 for the four rectangles plus 3*3*2 for the ends.
