Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

continuing from the 3rd line....

10x - 1 = 10x + 8 (subtract 10x from both sides)

10x - 10x - 1 = 10x -10x + 8

-1 = + 8 (this last line is not part of the solution but i'm showing it here so you can see what is going on, obviously -1 cannot be 8)

Since -1 ≠ 8, the equation has no (i.e zero) solutions

Point B has coordinates (1,2). The x-coordinate of point A is -8. The distance between point A and point B is 15 units. What

Xelga [282]

Answer:

The possible coordinates of point A are $A_{1} (x,y) = (-8, 14)$ and $A_{2} (x,y) = (-8, -10)$ , respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Analytical Geometry, we have the Equation of the Distance of a Line Segment between two points:

$l_{AB} = \sqrt{(x_{B}-x_{A})^{2} + (y_{B}-y_{A})^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$l_{AB}$ - Length of the line segment AB.

$x_{A}, x_{B}$ - x-coordinates of points A and B.

$y_{A}, y_{B}$ - y-coordinates of points A and B.

If we know that $l_{AB} = 15$ , $x_{A} = -8$ , $x_{B} = 1$ and $y_{B} = 2$ , then the possible coordinates of point A is:

$\sqrt{(1+8)^{2}+(2-y_{A})^{2}} = 15$

$81 + (2-y_{A})^{2} = 225$

$(2-y_{A})^{2} = 144$

$2-y_{A} = \pm 12$

There are two possible solutions:

1) $2-y_{A} = -12$

$y_{A} = 14$

2) $2 - y_{A} = 12$

$y_{A} = -10$

The possible coordinates of point A are $A_{1} (x,y) = (-8, 14)$ and $A_{2} (x,y) = (-8, -10)$ , respectively.

Find solution to the system of linear equations. 5x1 + x2 = 0 , 25x1 + 5x2 = 0

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

the system of equation has infinite solution

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x_1 + x_2 = 0$ , $25x_1 + 5x_2 = 0$

Solve the first equation for x_2

Subtract 5x1 on both sides

$5x_1 + x_2 = 0$

$x_2 =-5x_1$

Now substitute -5x1 on second equation

$25x_1 + 5x_2 = 0$

$25x_1 + 5(-5x_1)= 0$

$25x_1-25x_1= 0$

0=0

So the system of equation has infinite solution
