Answer:
You did not post the options, but i will try to answer this in a general way.
Because we have two solutions, i know that we are talking about quadratic equations, of the form of:
0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c.
There are two easy ways to see if the solutions of this equation are real or not.
1) look at the graph, if the graph touches the x-axis, then we have real solutions (if the graph does not touch the x-axis, we have complex solutions).
2) look at the determinant.
The determinant of a quadratic equation is:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c.
if D > 0, we have two real solutions.
if D = 0, we have one real solution (or two real solutions that are equal)
if D < 0, we have two complex solutions.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
B is the correct answer. Since Mrs. Hooper and Mr. Anderson had to call a total of 8 parents, you know the first equation must be either A or B (H + A = 8).
Since you know that Mrs. Hooper had to call 2 more parents than Mr. Anderson, the equation will have to have H + 2 on one side; that's how you know the correct answer is B.
So we are given that the line passes through (3,-1)
also been given the parallel line, we can tell that the slope is -4
to make a slope intercept form equation...
y = -4x +11
Hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 2y = 10 --------(1)
2x + 3y = 33 -----------(2)
Multiply 2 with eq. (1) and 4 with eq. (2)
8x + 4y = 20 ____________(3)
8x + 12y = 132 ______(4)
Subtracting (3) from (4),
8x + 4y = 20
- 8x -12y = -132
----------------------
0 -8y = -112
y = 112/8
y = 4 is the answer.
Putting the vakue of y in eq. (2),
2x + 12 = 33
2x = 33-12
2x = 21
x = 21/2 is the answer.
