Answer:
455 or 680, depending
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume the three choices are different, then there are ...
15C3 = 15·14·13/(3·2·1) = 35·13 = 455
ways to make the pizza.
___
If two or three of the topping choices can be the same, then there are an additional ...
2(15C2) +15C1 = 2·105 +15 = 225
ways to make the pizza, for a total of ...
455 + 225 = 680
different types of pizza.
__
There is a factor of 2 attached to the number of choices of 2 toppings, because you can have double anchovies and tomato, or double tomato and anchovies, for example, when your choice of two toppings is anchovies and tomato.

The equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1
<h3>Equation of a line</h3>
A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in point-slope form and perpendicular to a line is given as;
y - y1 = -1/m(x-x1)
where
m is the slope
(x1, y1) is the intercept
Given the following
Point = (4, -1)
Line: 2x-y - 7 = 0
Determine the slope
-y = -2x + 7
y= 2x - 7
Slope = 2
Substitute
y+1 = -1/2(x -4)
Write in slope-intercept form
2(y + 1) = -(x - 4)
2y+2 = -x + 4
2y = -x + 2
y = -1/2 + 1
Hence the equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1
