You just looked at the graph of this system of equations. Why will the lines never intersect? y = –x + 5 y = –x – 3

Answer:

The lines are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - x + 5 is in this form with m = - 1

y = - x - 3 is in this form with m = - 1

Parallel lines have equal slopes

The 2 lines are parallel and never intersect.

Sample Response:

The linear equations have the same slope, so the rate of change for each is the same. As long as the rate of change is the same, the lines will stay the same distance apart and not intersect.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer: Onion = 79.17 kg

Grilled steak = 538.356 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:

1 k + 6.8 k = 617.6

Where “k” is a constant value, a multiplier.

Solving for k:

7.8 k = 617.6

k = 617.6 /7.8

k= 79.17

So:

Amount of onion used:

1 (79.17) = 79.17 kg

Amount of grilled steak used:

6.8 (79.17) = 538.356 kg

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer:

The limit of the function as x approaches 1 is ∞

Vertical asymptote; x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The graphical approach to evaluating limits involves graphing the function, the graph of the function $\frac{1}{(x-1)^{2} }$ is contained in the attachment below.

The red vertical line is the graph of x = 1. As we approach the line x = 1 from the left, the value of the function, that is y becomes large and large indefinitely. That is the value of the function approaches infinity. The same case applies when we approach the vertical line x = 1 from the right.

Also noticeable is the fact that the function approaches the line x = 1 asymptotically. The function gets closer and closer to this line but actually never touches it. Therefore, the line x = 1 is our vertical asymptote of the function given
