Take any of the valid pairs of points, use the formula
rate of change = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Say we use P1=(0,21.4), P2=(3,19)
x1=0, y1=21.4
x2=3, y2=19
Rate of change = (21.4-19)/(0-3)=2.4/(-3) = -0.8 sq. ft/in of liquid
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent the number of mochas bought with the variable
, and the number of lattes bought with the variable
.
Since there are
students, the total number of mochas and lattes bought must be
. This can be represented with the following equation:

We can also set up another equation based on the total amount spent on the coffe:

If we rearrange the first equation, we can solve for
:

If we substitute this into the second equation, we can solve for
:





Subtituting this back into the original equation, we can solve for
:



Therefore, 9 mochas and 14 lattes were bought.
