She will use 8 centimeters of ribbon on each small gift.
72-24=48, 48 divided by 6 = 8
Answer:
a) Infinite solutions
b) No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
First, know the following:
If the graphs intersect, there's only one solution.
If the graphs are parallel, there are no solutions.
If the graphs are the exact same line, there are infinite solutions.
For a):
Change the first equation into a linear one.
Change the second equation into a linear one.
- 4x+6y=12
- 6y=-4x+12

Boom. You have two equations which are equal. As stated above, graphs on the exact same line have infinite solutions.
For b)
They are already in linear form so hurray.

These lines are parallel since they have the SAME slope but a different y-intercept. As stated above, parallel lines have no solutions.
Since ABCD is a parallelogram, the opposite sides will be parallel and equal,

Consider that AC acts as a transversal to the parallel lines AB and CD, so we can write,

So by the ASA criteria, the triangle AED is congruent to the triangle CEB,
Then the corresponding parts of the triangles will be equal,

Hence Proved.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of novels
y = number of dictionaries
x = 8y
88x + 208y = 13680
now, using the identity of the first equation in the second equation gives us
88(8y) + 208y = 13680
704y + 208y = 13680
912y = 13680
y = 13680/912 = 15
x = 8y = 8×15 = 120
so, there were 120 novels and 15 dictionaries sold.
The new shower head dispenses 3 gallons of water per minute, as shown in the equation y = 3x.
So, 3 x 8 = 24.
Then, to find out how much he saves each day, you would find how much he used before,
11 x 8 = 88
Next we want to see how much Nathan saved, so we subtract the total,
88 - 24 = 64
Nathan saved 64 gallons.
