The total number of​ restaurant-purchased meals that the average person will eat in a​ restaurant, in a​ car, or at home in a year is 193 . The total number of these meals eaten in a car or at home exceeds the number eaten in a restaurant by 15 . Thirty more​ restaurant-purchased meals will be eaten in a restaurant than at home. Find the number of​ restaurant-purchased meals eaten in a​ restaurant, the number eaten in a​ car, and the number eaten at home.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r, c, h represent the numbers of meals eaten in a restaurant, car, and at home, respectively. The problem statement tells us of the relations ...

  r + c + h = 193

  -r + c + h = 15

  r + 0c -h = 30

Add the last two equations:

  (-r +c +h) +(r -h) = (15) +(30)

  c = 45

Add the first two equations:

  (r + c + h) +(-r + c + h) = (193) +(15)

  2c +2h = 208

  h = 104 -c = 59 . . . . solve for h, substitute for c

The last equation can be used to find r.

  r = 30 +h = 30 +59 = 89

89 meals are eaten in a restaurant; 45 meals in a car; and 59 at home.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

i would say b) is your answer

sorry if im wrong
