A restaurant is holding an all you can eat ribs event. the initial serving of the meal includes half a slab of ribs, a loaded ba
ked potato, roasted garlic green beans, and a 750 mL soft drink. A customer can order as many additional quarter slabs of ribs as they want at no additional cost. The following information shows the number of calories in each menu item: Half slab of ribs: 613
Quarter slab of ribs: 328
Loaded baked potato: 532
Roasted garlic green beans: 298
750 mL soft drink: 295
a) Suppose a person ate the entire meal, but did not order any additional ribs. How many calories did that person consume?
b) Let C represent the number of calories consumed, and let Q represent the number of additional quarter slabs of ribs ordered. Write a linear equation relating C and Q.
c) Sketch a graph of the related linear equation.
d) what do the slope and C-intercept represent in this scenario?
e) The Canadian food guide suggests that a 16 year old male with a sedentary lifestyle should consume about 2300 calories per day. Use the linear equation to determine the number of additional quarter slabs a 16-year-old male could eat and still stay below the daily recommendation (assuming the male does not eat anything else that day)
f) use the recommended caloric intake to state the domain and range of the relation from part e
Well for part a all you have to do is add all of the intial calories toghther except for the quarter slab of ribs as for it isnt included in the intial meal 613+532+298+295= 1738 calories
for part b you do a simple y=mx+b equation (C=y and Q=x 1738=b)
C = 328Q + 1738
Plug that equation into a calculator to find a graph and sketch
The slope represents the amount of calories you add onto your initial amount of calories (1738), and the C-intercept represents your starting amount of calories from the original meal
For part E just use your graphing calculator to see where your linear equation is equal to 23 and use the X value at that point as the amount of Quarter slabs the teenager could ingest, assuming you do not have a calculator, the answer is around 2 quarter slabs

In this Linear function given by the law d(t) = 12t +20 and the graph below. To find the d(4), means to find out how many miles she cycled in the instant 4 hours.
By this function, after a break , the instant t=0, she had already cycled 20 miles.
