Solving the simultaneous equation show that the solution is inconsistent.

<h3>What is Inconsistent solution?</h3>

A simultaneous equation is said to have inconsistent solution when there is no value as the solution. This implies that no value of unknown will satisfy the equation.

Hence no value of x and y satisfies the equation.

4x -2y = 18 ______1

-4x + 2y = -18 ____2

from (1) make y the subject of formular

4x -2y = 18

2y =  4x - 18

y = 2x - 9   ______3

substitute y = 2x - 9 into 2

-4x + 2y = -18

-4x + 2 (2x - 9 ) = -18

-4x + 4x - 18 = -18

-4x + 4x = -18 + 18

0 = 0

This gives no solution hence the simultaneous equation is said to be inconsistent

The age of an ancient tree trunk is estimated using radiocarbon dating. If the trunk has a C-14 decay rate that is 34% of what i
laiz [17]

Answer:

8923 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Half life of C-14 = 5730yrs

decay rate= 34%

Halt life (t^1/2) = (ln2) / k

5730 = (ln2) /k

k = (ln2) / 5730

k = 1.209 * 10^-4

For first order reaction in radioactivity,

ln(initial amount) = -kt

ln(34/100) = -(1.209*10^-4)t

-1.0788 = -(1.209*10^-4)t

t = -1.7088/ -1.209*10^-4

t = 8923 years

If the tank is then field to capacity how many half-gallon bottles how many cords will it make?
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Divide 12 by 4 first to figure out how many gallons are in each 1/4 of the tank. 

12/4=3

So if I added another 1/4 to the capacity:

It could hold 15 gallons. 

All you have to do to find how many half bottles can be filled is to times 15 by two since we are filling half gallon bottles.

15x2=30

30 bottles.
