3.5 gallons = 14% of Total volume

Let the total volume be = x.

3.5 = (14/100)*x

3.5 = 14x / 100

3.5 * 100 = 14x

14x = 100 * 3.5

x = 100 * 3.5 / 14        Use a calculator

x  = 25

The tank can hold total volume of 25 gallons.

Which of these systems of linear equations has no solution? 2 x + 8 y = 15. 4 x + 16 y = 30. 2 x minus y = 18. 4 x + 2 y = 38. 4
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

4 x -3 y = 16 and

8 x -6 y = 34 are the equations that have no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have a look at the rules for a pair of lines, that have solution or no solution.

Let the equations be:

a_1x+b_1y+c_1=0 and

a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0

1. There exists exactly one solution:

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}\neq\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}

2. There exists infinitely many solutions i.e. lines are identical.

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

3. There exists No solutions i.e. lines are parallel and will never intersect.

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}\neq\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

Now, let us have a look at the given pair of lines:

Option a)

2 x + 8 y = 15\\4 x + 16 y = 30.

The ratio:

\dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{8}{16}=\dfrac{15}{30} = \dfrac{1}{2}

Hence, the lines are identical, infinite solutions.

Option b)

2 x - y = 18\\4 x + 2 y = 38

The ratio:

\dfrac{2}{4}\neq \dfrac{-1}{2}

Hence, exactly one solution.

Option c)

4 x + 7 y = 17\\8 x -14 y = 36

The ratio:

\dfrac{4}{8}\neq \dfrac{-7}{14}\\\dfrac{1}{2}\neq \dfrac{-1}{2}

Hence, exactly one solution.

Option d)

4 x - 3 y = 16\\8 x - 6 y = 34.

The ratio:

\dfrac{4}{8}= \dfrac{-3}{-6}\neq\dfrac{16}{34}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}= \dfrac{1}{2}\neq\dfrac{8}{17}

Hence, There is no solution.

The correct answer is:

4 x -3 y = 16 and

8 x -6 y = 34 are the equations that have no solution.
