Solve each system of equations algebraically. For each one, explain what the solution (or lack thereof) tells you
1 answer:
Answer:
a: no solutions
b: (2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
a:
In both equations, the slope of x is the same, but the y-intercept is not, which means they are parallel. Therefore, this system of equations has no solutions.
b:
Since both of the equations are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other:
We can solve by factoring (by finding a number that multiplies to 4 and adds up to -4):
(x-2)^2 = 0
x = 2
Now, to find y, plug-in x to any of the equations:
y = 2*2-1 = 3
Therefore, the solution to this system of equation is (2, 3)
I hope this helped.

From the given information, we get the value of ABC = 120°.
<h3>How to estimate the value of ABC?</h3>
Given: In the figure, O exists the center of the circle and OABC exists as a parallelogram.
Now, the radius of the circle exists
OA = OB = OC
Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal
AB = OC and OA = BC
In ∆OAB,
OA = OB = AB and,
In ∆OCB,
OC = OB = BC
Therefore, ∆OAB and ∆OCB exist in equilateral triangles.
All angles of an equilateral triangle are equivalent to 60°.
Hence, ∠ABC = ∠OBA + ∠OBC
∠ABC = 60° + 60°
∠ABC = 120°
Therefore, the value of ∠ABC = 120°.
