Okie so I iwoeo oeoeo to church ⛪️
<span>To catch him in 15 minutes the father must travel 32 miles per hour faster (since 1/4 hr * 32 mph = 8 miles)...
Thus the father must drive at 40 miles per hour. </span>
1. 4x + 8y = 12....divide by 4
x + 2y = 3
2y = -x + 3
y = -1/2x + 3/2...slope is -1/2, y int is 3/2
x + 2y = -3
2y = -x - 3
y = -1/2x - 3/2...slope is -1/2 and y int is -3/2
when the slopes are the same, and the y int are different, then the lines are parallel and never intersect...so they have no solution and are inconsistent
=================
2. y = 2x - 1...slope is 2 and y int is -1
y = -2x + 5 ...slope is -2 and y int is 5
when the slopes are different and the y int are different, then there is 1 solution making it independent
=================
3. 4x - 12y = 8...divide by 4
x - 3y = 2
same as other equation meaning the equations are the same line...meaning they have infinite solutions making them dependent
Set up a proportion here as the height over the shadow of the adult = to the height over the shadow of the baby. so you have 12/4.8 = height/2. cross multiply to get 12*2=4.8 times height, which is 24 = 4.8*height. divide both sides by 4.8 to get height = 5 feet
Answer: No
Step-by-step explanation: Because it is.
