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

Two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side. The perimeter of the triangle is 36 inch
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Two equal sides = 14.4 inches each

Shortest side = 7.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b + c = 36

a = b

a = 2c

then:

c = a/2

a + a + a/2 = 36

2a + a/2 = 36

4a/2 + a/2 = 36

5a/2 = 36

a = 2*36/5

a = 72/5

a = 14.4

a = 2c

14.4 = 2*c

c = 14.4/2

c = 7.2

a = b

b = 14.4

Check:

14.4 + 14.4 + 7.2 = 36
