Sagot :

Answer:

t = 8w + w/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Weight of bird = w

Amount of water consumed = 8*w = 8w

Amount of food ate = 0.5*w = 1/2w

Hence, the combined weight of water and food (t) consumed by the humming bird :

t = amount of water consumed + amount of food ate

t = 8w + w/2
