Lines with no solution are parallel lines....parallel lines will contain the same slope, but different y intercepts.
y = -2x + 3/2....slope (m) = -2 and y int (b) = 3/2
so the line we need will have a slope of -2, but can have any y int EXCEPT 3/2.
m = -2, and b = -1/3 is parallel, no solution
m = -2 and b = -2/3...parallel, no solution
Answer:
9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equations: x is the amount of hours Amber worked and y is the hours Jake worked
8x + 8y = 120
y = 3 + x
Substitute the second equation into the first
8x + 8(3+x) = 120
Distribute
8x + 24 + 8x = 120
Combine like-terms
16x + 24 = 120
Subtract 24 on both sides
16x = 96
Divide 16 on both sides
x = 6 (hours Amber worked)
Plug in this x-value into on of the two equations. I will use the second
y = 3 + 6
y = 9
Answer:
m<B = 60°
m<C = 60°
m<F = 80°
m<G = 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
m<B = 180° - 120° = 60°
m<C = m<B = 60° (Vertically opposite angles are equal)
m<F = 180° - (40° + m<C(60°)) = 80°
m<G = 180° - (m<H + m<B) = 180° - (40° + 60°) = 80°
Answer:
Shorts = 112 and t shirts = 165
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S = shorts
Let T = t shirts
T + S = 277
$2T + $3S = $656
-2(T + S) = 277 so -2T -2S = -544
2T + 3S = 656 so 2T + 3S = 656
------------------------
SO: (subtract T's cancel out) 1S = 112
divide by 1 so S = 112
Plug S into the top equation: T + s = 277 T + 112 = 277 so T = 165
