Set up a system of equations:

s = 2d - 5
s + d = 43

Where 's' represents the number of points Stilt scored and 'd' represents the number of points Dunk scored.

Plug in 2d - 5 for 's' in the 2nd equation:

s + d = 43

2d - 5 + d = 43

Combine like terms:

3d - 5 = 43

Add 5 to both sides:

3d = 48

Divide 3 to both sides:

d = 16

Plug this back into any of the two equations to find 's':

s + d = 43

s + 16 = 43

Subtract 16 to both sides:

s = 27

So Dunk scored 16 points and Stilt scored 27 points.

Do the equations y = -6x +4 and y = 4x + 6 have one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there is only one solution because the lines do not have the same slope, nor are they the exact same line.

So we know they must have just one solution.

Best of luck

23. it increased by 12 because the difference between -4 and 8 is 12
24. 25 because 40 minus 15 is 25
26. 5 because 156 minus 96 equals 60 and 60 divided by 12 equals 5

Suppose m = 2 + 6i, and | m + n | = 3√10, where n is a complex number.
Ksju [112]

Answer: a) √50

b) n = 1 + 7i

Step-by-step explanation:

first, the modulus of a complex number z = a + bi is

IzI = √(a^2 + b^2)  

The fact that n is complex does not mean that n doesn't has a real part, so we must write our numbers as:

m = 2 + 6i

n = a  + bi

Im + nI = 3√10

Im + n I = √(a^2 + b^2 + 2^2 + 6^2)= 3√10

            = √(a^2 + b^2 + 40) = 3√10

             a^2 + b^2 + 40 = 3^2*10 = 9*10 = 90

             a^2 + b^2 = 90 - 40 = 50

            √(a^2 + b^2 ) = InI = √50

The modulus of n must be equal to the square root of 50.

now we can find any values a and b such a^2 + b^2 = 50.

for example, a = 1 and b = 7

1^2 + 7^2 = 1 + 49  = 50

Then a possible value for n is:

n = 1 + 7i
