Please help me figure out this equation - I know it is easy - I can get the answer just by logically thinking, need help to get equation right.
\n" ); document.write( "1 inch steak gets broiled 12 mintues. Each additional inch, add 5 minutes to broil time. How do I get equation is I have 2 inch steak. w = inches; t = time
\n" ); document.write( "first inch is 12 minutes and each inch after that is 5 minutes per inch so total time would be T=12+5(W-1)
\n" ); document.write( "since your stake is 2 inches you get T=12+5*(2-1)=12+5=17 minutes
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
