Answer:
2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
to find slope it is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(15.25-8.50)/(5-2)
6.75/3
2.25 is the slope
The points which represents the vertices of the given equation are; (15, −2) and (−1, −2).
<h3>Which points among the answer choices represents the vertices of the ellipse whose equation is given?</h3>
The complete question gives the equation of the ellipse as; (x-7)²/64+(y+2)²/9=1.
Since, It follows from convention that general equation of ellipse with centre as (h, k) takes the form;
(x-h)²/a² +(y-k)²/b² = 1.
Consequently, it follows from observation that the value of a and b in the given equation in the task content is; √64 = 8 and √9 = 3 respectively.
Since, 8 > 3, The vertices of the ellipse are given by; (h±a, k).
The vertices in this scenario are therefore;
(7+8, -2) and (7-8, -2).
= (15, -2) and (-1, -2).

Answer:
For this scenario, I used the elimination method. Organize the equations, so it's easier to subtract from each other. My x-variable will represent the number of hot dogs and my y-variable will represent the number of sodas.
3x+2y=213
x + y =87
We need to make sure one of the monomials are alike in each equation, so we can eliminate a variable. Distribute 3 to each number/variable in the second equation.
3x+2y=213
3(x+y=87) --> 3x+3y=261
Now we can eliminate x.
3x+2y=213
- 3x+3y=261
----------------------
-y=-48
Divide -1 to both sides to get y=48. So, you sold 48 cans of soda. Now, we can find the number of hot dogs by substituting 48 into the second equation to get x+48=87. Subtract 48 to both sides to result with x=39. So, you sold 39 hot dogs.
