Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use synthetic division

-5 | 1 -4 3 7

Kia rides her bicycle at 20 miles per hour. Which equation represents the situation?

sergejj [24]

Answer:

(A)d=20h

Step-by-step explanation:

If Kia rides her bike at 20 miles per hour.

20 miles per hour is referred to as the Kia's Speed.

Now we know that:

$$Speed=\frac{Distance \:Travelled}{Time \:taken}$

Given:

Number of hours traveled=h
Distance traveled=d
Speed = 20 mph

Substituting these three into the formula above, we have:

$20=\dfrac{d}{h}\\$

Cross multiply

d=20h

The correct option is A.

Why do systems of nonlinear equations sometimes have more than one solution

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

System of two linear equations can't have exactly two solutions. Reason is that when we have two straight lines,they can only intersect at one point of intersection,no more. Or let's see if lines are equivalent,then they have infinitely many solutions,because any point on line can be solution for the system.
