Which represents the solution(s) of the graphed system of equations, y = x2 – 2x and y = –2x – 1? (1, –1) (0, 0) and (0, –1) (0,
olganol [36]

ANSWER

No solution

EXPLANATION

The first equation is

y =  {x}^{2}  - 2x

and the second equation is

y =  - 2x  - 1

We equate the two equations to obtain;

{x}^{2}  - 2x =  - 2x - 1

This implies that

{x}^{2}  =  - 2x + 2x - 1

{x}^{2}  =  - 1

There is no real number whose square is -1.

Therefore, the equation has no solution.

If m, p, and t are distinct positive prime numbers, then (m^3)(p)(t) has how many different positive factors greater than 1?
harina [27]

Answer:

  d.  15

Step-by-step explanation:

List the exponents of each of the prime factors. Here, they are 3, 1, 1.

Add 1 to each of these values and form the product of these sums:

  (4)(2)(2) = 16

This is the number of divisors of the number. Since 1 is included in this count, 15 of the divisors are greater than 1.

Write an equation of a line that has the same slope as 2x – 5y = 12 and the same y-intercept as 4y + 24 = 5x.
Alekssandra [29.7K]
In ax+by=c form
slope=-a/b

y intercept is when x=0


sloope of 2x-5y=12 is -2/-5=2/5

y intercept of 4y+24=5x
4y+24=5(0)
4y+24=0
4y=-24
y=-6
y int=-6

y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept
y=2/5x-6

answer is 2nd optoin
