From your equation, you can see that you have a difference of two cubes (aka two cubes being subtracted): 64, which is

, and

.
There is rule for the difference of two cubes:
The difference of two cubes is equal to the difference of the cube roots times a binomial, which is the sum of the squares of the roots plus the product of the roots.
That sounds pretty confusing, but it's much easier to understand when put mathematically. Let's say our two cubes are

and

. The difference of those two cubes is:

In our problem, a = 4 (since

= 64) and b = y (since

. Plug these values into the rule to find the factor of

Answer:
One question at a time, please. I will focus on #16 and ignore #18.
slope: 3/4 line passes thru (-8,2)
Write out y = mx + b. Subst. 2 for y. Subst. -8 for x Subst. (3/4) for m:
2 = (3/4)(-8) + b. Find b. 2 = -6 + b => b = 8
So your equation is y = (3/4)x + 8. Please, use ( ) around those fractions!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of large pizzas be l and number of small be s.
<u>Then we have equations:</u>
- l + s = 100
- 16l + 11s = 1550
<u>From the first equation, we get l = 100 - s and substitute in the second equation:</u>
- 16(100 - s) + 11s = 1550
- 1600 - 16s + 11s = 1550
- 5s = 1600 - 1550
- 5s = 50
- s = 10
Number of small pizzas is 10
