Always use the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to find a line’s slope, given two points:
(-1- -8)/(4-5) = 7/-1 = -7
-7 is the slope
X=cost per hamburgurs
y=cost per hot dog
200x+150y=1450
200x+250y=1750
we can multiply first equation by -1 and add to 2nd
-200x-150y=-1450
<u>200x+250y=1750 +</u>
0x+100y=300
100y=300
divide both sides by 100
y=3
sub back
200x+150y=1450
200x+150(3)=1450
200x+450=1450
minus 450 both sides
200x=1000
divide both sides by 200
x=5
the cost of a hamburgur is $5
the cost of a hot dog is $3
1) 9m
2) 1/64
3) 50d^3
4) pq^2 (p-q) (p-q)
= pq^2 ( p^2 - 9p -9p +18)
= pq^4 - 18p^2q^2 + 8pq^2
= q^2 - 18p + 8
