To prepare for wrestling season, Tommy wants to eat 24 grams of protein at breakfast. He knows that there are 3 grams of protein

in a slice of bacon and 6 grams of protein in an egg. Let x represent the number of slices of bacon he will eat and let y represent the number of eggs he will eat.
Write an equation that relates the number of slices of bacon to the number of eggs he will eat, assuming he eats exactly 24 grams of protein. **Rewrite your equation in slope-intercept form.

Answer:

1) The equation that represents the number of slices of bacon to the number he will eat, assuming he eats 24 grams is;

3·x + 6·y = 24

2) The equation in slope and intercept form is;

y = 4 - 0.5·x

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

The amount of protein Tommy wants to eat for breakfast = 24 grams

The quantity of protein in a slice of bacon = 3 grams

The quantity of protein in an egg = 6 grams

Let x represent the number of slices of bacon he will eat and let y represent the number of eggs he will eat

The equation that represents the number of slices of bacon to the number he will eat, assuming he eats 24 grams is given as follows;

3·x + 6·y = 24

2) The equation in slope and intercept form is given by making y the subject of the above equation as follows;

3·x + 6·y = 24

6·y = 24 - 3·x

y = 24/6 -1/2·x

y = 4 - 0.5·x, which is in the slope and intercept form y = m·x + c

Where;

m = The slope = -0.5

c = The y-intercept = 4

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The common difference is -5/4

T(n) = T(0)  - 5n/4,

where T(0) can be any number. d = -5/4

Assuming T(0) = 0, then first term

T(1) = 0 -5/4 = -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

T(n) = T(0) + n*d

Let

S1 = T(x) + T(x+1) + T(x+2) + T(x+3) = 4*T(0) + (x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3)d = 240

S2 = T(x+4) + T(x+5) + T(x+6) + T(x+7) = 4*T(0) + (x+5 + x+6 + x+7 + x+8)d = 220

S2 - S1

= 4*T(0) + (x+5 + x+6 + x+7 + x+8)d - (4*T(0) + (x+1 + x+2 + x+3 + x+4)d)

= (5+6+7+8 - 1 -2-3-4)d

= 4(4)d

= 16d

Since S2=220,  S1 = 240

220-240 = 16d

d = -20/16 = -5/4

Since T(0) has not been defined, it could be any number.

Help anyone?? Not that hardd<br> no links ! :(
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you cancel out \frac{6}{20} to become \frac{3}{10}

Then that becomes -\frac{3}{10}+1.5

Now, you convert the element to a decimal form to be -0.3+1.5

Finally, you subtract them (because a negative plus a positive is subtraction) to get the final answer of 1.2

Hope this helps!

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

$5,675

Step-by-step explanation:

you would just take 4% and 5% of 2500 which is 100 and 125 and multiply them both by 3 which is 300 and 375 and add them both to the 2500 which is 2800 and 2875 and since it asks for the sum you would add then to get a total of $5,675
