Q9,其实就是问直线b=4a-16(也就是y=4x-16)的斜率，注意（3，-4）本身就在这条直线上。可以这样理解，点（a,b)是动点，移动的轨迹是b=4a-16

Q23， 设苹果价钱为a， 桔子为o, 昨天卖了A个苹果，O个桔子， 已知a-o=0.1, 求O*o
如果知道1， O=A+5， O*o=oA+5o， 可是我们只知道a和o的关系，所以1自己不能求出O*o.
如果知道2， A*a=15， 我们同样求不出O*o。
如果知道1和2， A*a=(O-5)*(0.1+o)=O*o-0.5+0.1O-5o.=15，貌似我们还是求不出O*o。
现在要考虑A和O是整数会不会影响方程的解， 如果A=1， a=15, o=15.1, O=6, 貌似O*o虽然夸张但是也可以。如果A=2, a=7.5, o=7.4, O=7, O*o也没什么不行。

所以我认为1+2也不行，不知道对不对

Q32 设只投资海外没有盈利的为I,只盈利没有投资海外的为P，两个都有的为X,两个都没有为Y。
那么P+I+X+Y=30， P+X=21, X+I=15， 求Y

如果知道1， X=12， 可知I=3, P=9, Y=6
如果知道2，I+P+X=24， 所以Y=6
所以2个条件都可以
