Slope= y2-y1 / x2-x1
slope = 15 - (-1) / 3- (-1)
slope = 16 / 4
slope = 4
<h3>
Answer: Choice A) 9 combinations</h3>
Explanation:
Imagine you had a table with 3 rows and 3 columns. The rows represent the possible main dishes (Chicken, Fish, Beef) and the rows represent the side dishes (Rice, Potatoes, Vegetables).
The table has 3*3 = 9 cells inside it. Each inner cell represents a different combo the customer can order.
A) x^2 + y^2 = 80
B) x * y = 12
What is x^2 -y^2?
B) x * y = 12
So y = 12 / x
A) x^2 + (12/x)^2 = 80
x^2 + (12/x)^2 = 80
x^2 + (144/x^2) = 80
Multiplying each side by x^2
x^4 + 144 = 80x^2
x^4 -80x^2 + 144 = 0
X = 1.355 (found by trial and error)
