Answer: a=-0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
14a - (2a +9)=2/3 (12a-18)
14a - 2a -9=2/3 * 6(2a-3)
12a-9=2*6/3 (2a-3)
12a-9=2*2(2a-3)
12a-9=4(2a-3)
12a-9=8a-12
4a-9=-12
4a=-3
a=-3/4
a=-0.75
Answer:
II. One and only one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine all possibilities for the solution set of a system of 2 equations in 2 unknowns. I. No solutions whatsoever. II. One and only one solution. III. Many solutions.
Let assume the equation is given as;
x + 3y = 11 .... 1
x - y = -1 ....2
Using elimination method
Subtract equation 1 from 2
(x-x) + 3y-y = 11-(-1)
0+2y = 11+1
2y = 12
y = 12/2
y = 6
Substitute y = 6 into equation 2:
x-y = -1
x - 6 = -1
x = -1 + 6
x = 5
Hence the solution (x, y) is (5, 6)
<em>Hence we can say the equation has One and only one solution since we have just a value for x and y</em>

Answer:
Option C. The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> the time in seconds
y ----> the distance in meters
The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time
In this problem, the slope or unit rate of the linear equation is the same that the speed
<em>Robin's Flight</em>
<em>Find the slope</em>
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
take two points from the table
(2,30) and (3,45)
substitute in the formula

<em>Cardinal's Flight</em>


<em>Blue Jay's Flight</em>
take two points from the graph
(0,0) and (2,20)
substitute in the formula

Compare
The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s
Hi
we have 2x-4x-9=29
we add nine on both sides and get 2x-4x=38.
2x-4x=-2x, so we simplify the equation to -2x=38.
divide by -2 on both sides, x=-19
hope this helps
