Laurent is preparing a fruit salad. She wants the total carbohydrates from pineapple and watermelon to equal 24 g. Pineapple has 3 g of carbohydrates per ounce and watermelon has 2 g of carbohydrates per ounce. Write and graph an equation to model this situation.

3x+2y=24

Step-by-step explanation:

I made the x value be the pineapples and the y value be the watermelon. And it said in the problem that it should equal 24g so I made it equal 24. Next You would need to find the x and y intercepts in order to graph it.

2y=24 and 3x=24, so x=8 and y=12.  Now unfortunately I can't add a graph here but if you input those intercepts in an app like desmos or photomath, you'll get a graph. Hope this helps!

the function makes a strait line horizontally with no x intercept but a y intercept at 9.
