Question:
Vance ate a salad and 4/5 of a turkey burger for dinner. the salad contained 80 calories and his entire meal contained 440 calories. which equation can be used to determine x, the number of calories in the entire turkey burger?
A.440 = 4/5x+80
B.80=4/5x+440
C.440 =4/5(80)+x
D440 =80x+4/5
Answer:
Option A
Equation used to determine x, the number of calories in the entire turkey burger is [tex]440 = \frac{4}{5}x + 80[/tex]
Solution:
Given that Vance ate a salad and 5 of a turkey burger for dinner
The salad contained 80 calories and his entire meal contained 440 calories
To find: Equation used to determine x, the number of calories in the entire turkey burger
Let "x" be the number of calories in the entire turkey burger
The total calorie of the entire meal is 440 and this is the sum of the calorie contained in 4/5 of the calories in the burger and the calories in salad
The equation that would best represent the scenario is:
total calorie in entire meal = calories in [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] of turkey burger + calories in salad
[tex]440 = \frac{4}{5}x + 80[/tex]
Thus option A is correct
The equation that can be used to determine the amount of calories in the entire turkey burger is 440 =4/ 5x + 80.
What is the equation needed to determine the amount of calories in the entire turkey burger?
The equation that represents the total calories in the meal is:
Total calories = total calories of the salad + 4/5(calories of the turkey)
440 =4/ 5x + 80
