Answer:  The answer is NO.


Step-by-step explanation: The given statement is -

If the graph of two equations are coincident lines, then that system of equations will have no solution.

We are to check whether the above statement is correct or not.

Any two equations having graphs as coincident lines are of the form -

ax+by=c,\\\\dax+dby=dc,\\\\\textup{where}~~d\neq 1.

If we take d = 1, then both the equations will be same.

Now, subtracting the second equation from first, we have

a(1-d)x+b(1-d)y=c(1-d)\\\\\Rightarrow ax+by=c,~\textup{since}~d\neq 1,~\textup{so}~1-d\neq 0.

Again, we will get the first equation, which is linear in two unknown variables. So, the system will have infinite number of solutions, which consists of the points lying on the line.

For example, see the attached figure, the graphs of following two equations is drawn and they are coincident. Also, the result is again the same straight line which has infinite number of points on it. These points makes the solution for the following system.

2x+5y=10,\\\\6x+15y=30.

Thus, the given statement is not correct.

Find the slope of the line. pleaseee
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the change in y divided by the corresponding change in x:

  ∆y/∆x = (54.99 -54.99)/(7 -6) = 0/1 = 0

The slope of the line is zero.

Through:(-1, -2), slope = 5
kherson [118]

Answer:

y=5x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the point (-1, -2) and a slope of 5. We need to find the equation of the line in slope intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Since we're already given the slope, we can substitute that immediately into the equation

here it is so far:

y=5x+b

now we need to solve for b

Since the line will pass through the point (-1,-2), we can use it to solve for b

substitute -1 as x and -2 as y into the equation

-2=5(-1)+b

multiply

-2=-5+b

add 5 to both sides

3=b

substitute that into the equation

therefore, the equation of the line is <u>y=5x+3</u>

Hope this helps! :)
