This question involves systems of equations. You can use matrices on a graphing calculator or solve by elimination. Set this up as x+y=1212 and x-y=518. If you solve on a graphing calculator, click 2nd matrix then edit. Change the matrix to a two by three and input on the first line horizontally 1, 1, 1212 and on the second line 1, -1, 518. Then hit the quit button and go to the home screen. Click 2nd matrix again and hit rref and quit again and click on the name of the matrix. If you solve by elimination multiply the first one by -1 so your ys can cancel and then find x and plug in. So your two numbers are 865 and 347. 

-Trust me, learn how to do these on your calculator, it will minus the tricky solving of systems.

So write down your 2 equations:
 x + y = 1212
 x - y = 518

If you add them together, the y's will cancel out, leaving you to solve for you x
2x = 1730
x = 865

then substitute x back into one of your equations to find y
ex: 865 + y = 1212, y = 347
ex: 865 - y = 518, -y = -347, y = 347

Explain all parts of the equation y=mx+b <br><br> *will mark brainliest*
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and b is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis). This useful form of the line equation is sensibly named as the "slope-intercept form".The coordinates of every point on the line will solve the equation if you substitute them in the equation for x and y. The slope m of this line shows its steepness, or slant - It can be calculated like this:

                         m = change in y-value  /change in x-value

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b ....

how many restaurants have hawaiin pizza on their menu if 7.5% of the 100 restaurants served hawaiin pizza
vova2212 [387]
By my, calculations this means that there is an estimated number of restaurants that receive a Hawaiian pizza order from their menu and that is 7.5. So out of 100 restaurants, there are 7.5 Hawaiian pizza orders.
