Answer:
Equivalent systems of equations review
Step-by-step explanation:
We're given two systems of equations and asked if they're equivalent.
x + 4y = 8 (1)
4x + y = 2 (2)
Interestingly, if we sum the equations in System A, we get:
Replacing the first equation in System A with this new equation, we get a system that's equivalent to System A:
This is System B, which means that System A is equivalent to System B.
Answer:
4W=25
providing the distances from the hanger wire to the weights are equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find the slope of line joining (2, 5) and (4, 4)
Assuming points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂)
Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Slope = (4 - 5) / (4 -2) = -1/2 = -0.5
From equation of line: y = mx + c
y = -0.5x + c
Using the point (2 , 5) as passing through y = -0.5x + c
x = 2, y = 5
5 = -0.5*2 + c
5 = -1 + c
5 + 1 = c
6 = c
c = 6
Therefore the y-intercept which is c = 6
y-intercept = 6
Hope this explains it.
Exact form is 25/2
Decimal form is 12.5
Mixed number form is 12 1/2
The answer to this is 2/5.
We can solve this by dividing both 16 and 40 by 8, which is their largest common factor.
In addition, all ratios can be written as fraction form.
Therefore, after the simplification, 16 to 40, also 16/40, is turned to 2/5.
