Answer:
Therefore the total number of ways that the customer can order the smothered steak dinner is 9800.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 7 side dishes, and types of stake and 8 toppings.
The customer will have a smothered steak dinner.
The smothered steak dinner will consist of steak and 3 different toppings and 4
different side dishes.
The number of ways steak can be selected is =
The number of ways toppings can be chosen is = 
The number of ways side dishes can be chosen = 
Therefore the total number of ways that the customer can order the smothered steak dinner is
= 5 × 56 × 35 = 9800.
1. 7.5 because Y/75 X 10/100 = 750 /100 = 7.5
2. .75 because Y/75 X 1/100 = 75/100 = .75
Factor 4
4=1 times 4
2 times 2
they don't add to 2
set up equation
x+y=2
xy=4
first equation, subtract x from both sides
y=2-x
subsitute for y
x(2-x)=4
distribute
2x-x^2=4
add x^2
2x=x^2+4
subtract 2x
0=x^2-2x+4
use quadratic formula which is
if you have ax^2+bx+c=0 then
x=

so
1x^2-2x+4=0
a=1
b=-2
c=4
x=

x=

x=

we have

and that doesn't give a real solution
therefor there are no real solutions
but if you want to solve fully
x=

i=

x=

x=

x=

or x=

(those are the 2 numbers)
