The Law Of Syllogism, which is also called Reasoning by Transitivity, is basically if a = b and b = c, then a = c, which is also the transitive property. Hence the alternate name. It can be used for mathematical deductions and is mainly used in the unit of logic statements, such as conditional and inverse statements. Here is an example:
If it is raining today, then I will wear my raincoat.
If I wear my raincoat today, then I will wear my boots.
When we use the Law of Syllogism, we get:
If it is raining today, then I will wear my boots.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!

Answer: The law of syllogism, also called reasoning by transitivity, is a valid argument form of deductive reasoning that follows a set pattern. It is similar to the transitive property of equality, which reads: if a = b and b = c then, a = c. ... If they are true, then statement 3 must be the valid conclusion.

Answer:

a) one solution

b) no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Systems of equations can be described as having one solution, no solution or infinite solutions:

One solution:  'x' and 'y' are equal to only one value

No solution:  'x' and 'y' can not be solved with the given equations

Infinite solutions:  values for 'x' and 'y' include all real numbers

In order to evaluate the systems, putting them in the same format is your first step:

a) - y  = -5x - 6 or y - 5x = 6

   y - 5x = -6

Since both equations have the same expression 'y - 5x', but there are equal to opposite values, this system would have no solution, as this would not be possible to calculate.

b) y + 3x = -1

  y = 3x -1 or y - 3x = -1

Solving for 'y' by adding the equations and eliminating 'x', gives us:

2y = -2 or y = -1

Using y = -1 to plug back into an equation and solve for 'x':  -1 + 3x = -1 or x = 0.  Since 'x' and 'y' can be solved for a value, the system has just one solution.

Use slope and y intercept to graph a line. y=2x-5
Solnce55 [7]
On your graph:

-- Mark a dot on the y-axis, at y = -5 .

-- From there, move 1 unit to the right and 2 units up and make a mark.  If this
is too tiny for you, then you can move 7 units to the right and 14 units up, or
11 units to the right and 22 units up ... any way you want to do it, as long as
the distance 'up' is double the distance to the right, because the slope is 2 to 1.
Wherever you wind up, mark a dot.

-- Using your pencil and your ruler, draw a straight line between the two dots you have
marked.  You may extend it as far as you wish in either or both directions.
