Answer:
Corn Beef = x
Creamed Chipped beef = y
Jan:
2x + 3y = 4.95
Wayne:
3x +2y = 5.95
Graph two equation and find the point where two lines cross and that will be solution.
Point where two lines cross: (1.29, 0.79)
Corn Beef = $1.29
Creamed Chipped Beef = $0.79
Step-by-step explanation:
rate of change=slope= y2-y1/x2-x1
x: -2|-1|0|1
y : 5|4|3|2
so choose 2 ordered pairs. in this case, we will choose (-2,5) and (-1,4)
now we plug them in:
4-5=-1
-1-(-2)=1
so -1/1 is equal to -1, meaning it's answer option b.
Answer: B, x = 2.25 cm
