What is the unit of currency here? " # " does not represent any currency, but rather is a representation of "pound" (the unit of weight, not the British pound).
If you do mean "British pound," then
70 British pounds
------------------------ = 41.2 pence (like pennies) per kg.
1.7 kg
These techniques for elimination are preferred for 3rd order systems and higher. They use "Row-Reduction" techniques/pivoting and many subtle math tricks to reduce a matrix to either a solvable form or perhaps provide an inverse of a matrix (A-1)of linear equation AX=b. Solving systems of linear equations (n>2) by elimination is a topic unto itself and is the preferred method. As the system of equations increases, the "condition" of a matrix becomes extremely important. Some of this may sound completely alien to you. Don't worry about these topics until Linear Algebra when systems of linear equations (Rank 'n') become larger than 2.
Percent error : (approximate value - exact value) / exact value.....x 100
percent error : (5.75 - 6.25) / 6.25......ignore any negative signs
0.5 / 6.25 = 0.08.....x 100 = 8% error <==
Answer: C. No solution. ( top shaded. Middle not. Bottom shaded.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given inequalities
y< -1/3x+5 and
y> -1/3x-1.
If we draw graph for y< -1/3x+5 equation, it would be a dotted line and we would shade down the dotted line because we have less than < symbol there.
Now, if we draw graph for second inequality y> -1/3x-1, it would also be a dotted line and we would shade up of dotted line because we have greater than > symbol there.
Now, we can see that slopes of both dotted lines are same that is -1/3.
So, there would not be any common shaded region.
Therefore, there would not by any solution of the system of inequalities.
And correct option is C option.
C. No solution. ( top shaded. Middle not. Bottom shaded.
