A granola bite contains 27 calories. Most of the calories come from grams of carbohydrates. The rest come from other ingredients. One gram of carbohydrate contains 4 calories. The equation represents the relationship between these quantities. List the facts. * 4c + 5 = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression that modeled the relationship between these quantities (calories from grams of carbohydrate and the rest of the ingredients) as

4c+5 = 27

From the equation, the constant value of 5 represents the calories in grams of  the rest of the ingredients present in the bite.

Let us calculate the value of c from the equation

4c+5 = 27

4c + 5- 5 = 27-5

4c = 22

c = 22/4

c = 5.5

This means that the total calories of carbohydrate the granola bite contains is 4(5.5) i.e 21 calories of carbohydrate

Note that 8 cannot be the solution to the equation because for us to eliminate 5 from both sides of the equation, we need to subtract it from both sides not add. If 5 was added to both sides, the value of c would have been (32/4 i.e 8) which would have been wrong.
