There are 2 grams of fat in 1 pound of chicken. there are 9 grams of fat in 4.5 pounds of chicken. How many grams of fat would be in 10 pounds of chicken?

There will be 20 grams of fat in 10 pounds of chicken.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based of the pattern you can tell that the Grams of fat will always be double the amount of pounds.

2 grams of fat in 1 pound

9 grams in 4.5 pounds

So:

10 * 2 = Grams of fat

10 * 2 = 20 Grams of fat.

So there will be 20 grams of fat in 10 pounds of chicken.

there is no graph so i cant sorry

step-by-step explanation:

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)
