Answer:
p= 2.5
q= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The lines should overlap to have infinite solutions, slopes should be same and y-intercepts should be same.
Equations in slope- intercept form:
6x-(2p-3)y-2q-3=0 ⇒ (2p-3)y= 6x -2q-3 ⇒ y= 6/(2p-3)x -(2q+3)/(2p-3)
12x-( 2p-1)y-5q+1=0 ⇒ (2p-1)y= 12x - 5q+1 ⇒ y=12/(2p-1)x - (5q-1)/(2p-1)
Slopes equal:
6/(2p-3)= 12/(2p-1)
6(2p-1)= 12(2p-3)
12p- 6= 24p - 36
12p= 30
p= 30/12
p= 2.5
y-intercepts equal:
(2q+3)/(2p-3)= (5q-1)/(2p-1)
(2q+3)/(2*2.5-3)= (5q-1)/(2*2.5-1)
(2q+3)/2= (5q-1)/4
4(2q+3)= 2(5q-1)
8q+12= 10q- 2
2q= 14
q= 7
Answer: 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
You can change all the fractions to have equivalent denominators.
The Least Common Denominator of 1 1/4 and 3/8 is 8. Now we can change the fractions.
1 1/4 = 1 2/8 = 10/8.
3/8 = 3/8.
Now we can subtract. Subtract the numerators of the first fraction from the numerators of the second fraction, and the denominators oft he first fraction to the denominators of the second fraction.
10/8 - 3/8 = 7/8.
Therefore, 1 1/4 - 3/8 = 7/8; the fourth answer.
1700÷40= 42.5
step one: you divide 40 into 1700
step two: you find the closest number that goes into 1700 which is 4 so 40×4= 160
step three: then you subtract 1700 from 160 and you'll get 100
step four: then you'll find the closest number that goes into a 100 and that will be 2 so 40×2=80
step 5: you'll then subtract 100 from 80 and you'll get 20
step 6: you when then add a decimal and add an extra 0 to 1700 so you will now have 17000 you will bring down the 0 to make 20 into 200 and you will find the closest number that will go into 200 which will be 5 cause 40×5= 200 so you're answer will be 42.5units
