1. Which of the following systems is consistent and dependent?

Mathematics

Answer:

Choice d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consistent means the linear functions will have at least one solution.

Independent means the it will just that one solution.

Dependent means the system will have infinitely many solutions.

So we are looking for a pair of equations that consist of the same line.

y=mx+b is slope-intercept form where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If m and b are the same amongst the pair, then that pair is the same line and the system is consistent and dependent.

If m is the same and b is different amongst the pair, then they are parallel and the system will be inconsistent (have no solution).

If m is different, then the pair will have one solution and will be consistent and independent.

---------------------------

Choice A:

First line has m=1 and b=4.

Second line has m=1 and b=-4.

These lines are parallel.

This system is inconsistent.

Choice B:

First line is x+y=4 and it isn't in y=mx+b form.

Second line is 2x+2y=6 and it isn't in y=mx+b form.

These lines do have the same form though. This is actually standard form.

If you divide second equation by 2 on both sides you get:  x+y=3

The lines are not the same.

We are looking for the same line.

Now we could go ahead and determine to call this system.

If x+y has value 4 then how could x+y have value 3.  It is not possible. There is no solution. These lines are parallel.

Need more convincing. Let's put them into slope-intercept form.

x+y=4

Subtract x on both sides:

y=-x+4

m=-1 and b=4

x+y=3

Subtract x on both sides:

y=-x+3

m=-1 and b=3.

The system is inconsistent because they are parallel.

Choice c:

I'm going to go ahead in put them both in slope-intercept form:

3x+y=3

Subtract 3x on both sides:

y=-3x+3

So m=-3 and b=3

2y=6x+6

Divide both sides by 2:

y=3x+3

So m=3 and b=3

The m's are different so this system will by consistent and independent.

Choice d:

The goal is the same. Put them in slope-intercept form.

4x-2y=6

Divide both sides by -2:

-2x+y=-3

Add 2x on both sides:

y=2x-3

m=2 and b=-3

6x-3y=9

Divide both sides by -3:

-2x+y=-3

Add 2x on btoh sides:

y=2x-3

m=2 and b=-3

These are the same line because they have the same m and the same b.

This system is consistent and dependent.

The figure shows △ABC . BD is the angle bisector of ∠ABC .
Misha Larkins [42]
From angle bisector theorem, we know that:

\dfrac{|AD|}{|DC|}=\dfrac{|BA|}{|BC|}\\\\\\\dfrac{|AD|}{|DC|}=\dfrac{8}{10}=\dfrac{4}{5}

Moreover:

|AD|+|DC|=6

so:

|DC|=6-|AD|

and

\dfrac{|AD|}{|DC|}=\dfrac{4}{5}\\\\\\\dfrac{|AD|}{6-|AD|}=\dfrac{4}{5}\qquad\qquad\text{cross multiplying}\\\\\\ 5\cdot|AD|=4\cdot\big(6-|AD|\big)\\\\5\cdot|AD|=24-4\cdot|AD|\\\\5\cdot|AD|+4\cdot|AD|=24\\\\9\cdot|AD|=24\qquad|:9\\\\\\|AD|=\dfrac{24}{9}=\boxed{\dfrac{8}{3}}

The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than its width. Its area is 91 square inches. The length is .
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

13 in

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width then length is w + 6

the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × width , then

A = w(w + 6) = 91 , that is

w² + 6w = 91 ( subtract 91 from both sides )

w² + 6w - 91 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form

(w + 13)(w - 7) = 0 ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w + 13 = 0 ⇒ w = - 13

w - 7 = 0 ⇒ w = 7

however, w > 0 then w = 7

and length = w + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13 in

In your lab, a substance's temperature has been observed to follow the function T(x) = (x + 5)3 + 7. The turning point of the gr
kompoz [17]
A turning point occurs when the velocity is equal to zero, but the acceleration is not equal to zero. 

t(x)=(x+5)^3+7

dt/dx=3(x+5)^2

d2t/dx2=6(x-5)

dt/dx=0 only when x=-5

However, since d2t/dx2(-5)=0, this point is an inflection point, not a turning point.

So there is no turning point for this function.

Now in this problem, it is even easier than the above to show that there is no turning point.  A turning point by definition is when the derivative or velocity changes sign.  Since in this case v=3(x+5)^2, for any value of x, v≥0, and thus never becomes negative, so it never changes from a positive to negative velocity because velocity in this instance is a squared function.

To how many pages would need to make 5 books you can use the equation, 195=(35)5. how many pages would be in 5 books?
gregori [183]

Answer:

195 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

195 = (35)5

This equation basically means that if you need to make 5 books and each book has 35 pages, you will need 195 pages to make all 5 books.

The question is asking you to identify the different parts of the equation and locate what information each number corresponds to.

So, 195 pages would be in 5 books.
