Jeremy wants to determine the number of solutions for the equation below without actually solving the equation.

Answer:

  1 solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeremy can simplify the equation enough to determine if the x-coefficient on one side of the equation is the same or different from the x-coefficient on the other side. Here, that simplification is ...

  -3x -3 +3x = -3x +3 +3

We see that the x-coefficient on the left is 0; on the right, it is -3. These values are different, so there is one solution.

__

In the attached, the left-side expression is called y1; the right-side expression is called y2. The two expressions are equal where the lines they represent intersect. That point of intersection is x=3. (For that value of x, both sides of the equation have a value of -3.)

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

If the equation's x-coefficients were the same, we'd have to look at the constants. If they're the same, there are an infinite number of solutions. If they are different, there are no solutions.

If you were to move use the substitution method to solve the following system choose the new equation after the expression equiv
yanalaym [24]

Solve x+4y = 13 for x by subtracting 4y from both sides.

We end up with x = -4y+13.

Since x and -4y+13 are the same, we can replace every x in the first equation with -4y+13

2x-3y = -29

2( x ) - 3y = -29

2( -4y+13 ) - 3y = -29 ... x is replaced with -4y+13

The answer is choice B

Marcellus has a pitcher that contained 5/8 gallon limeade. Marcellus drank 1/4 gallon of the limeade, and Marcy drank 1/8 gallon
mash [69]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Marcellus drank 1/4 gallon of the limeade and Marcy drank 1/8 gallon of the limeade

Given that only 5/8 portion of the pitcher contains limeade

Total amount drunk = amount drunk by Marcellus + amount drunk by Marcy

Total amount drunk = \frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{8} = \frac{3}{8}

The amount of Limeade remained = The amount initially - the amount drunk

The amount remained =  \frac{5}{8} -\frac{3}{8} = \frac{1}{4}

Fractional part = amount remained / amount initially = \frac{\frac{1}{4} }{\frac{5}{8} } = \frac{2}{5}
