Answer:
no solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We're given this system of equations:
x+y=3
4y=-4x-4
and we need to solve it (find the point where the lines intersect, as these are linear equations)
let's solve this system by substitution, where we will set one variable equal to an expression containing the other variable, substitute that expression to solve for the variable the expression contains, and then use the value of the solved variable to find the value of the first variable
we'll use the second equation (4y=-4x-4), as there is already only one variable on one side of the equation. Every number is multiplied by 4, so we'll divide both sides by 4
y=-x-1
now we have y set as an expression containing x
substitute -x-1 as y in x+y=3 to solve for x
x+-x-1=3
combine like terms
-1=3
This statement is untrue, meaning that the lines x+y=3 and 4y=-4x-4 won't intersect.
Therefore the answer is no solutions
Hope this helps! :)
The graph below shows the two equations graphed; they are parallel, which means they will never intersect. If they don't intersect, there's no common solution
Answer:
$7.20
Step-by-step explanation:
If 8 pens cost $3.84, we need to find out how much ojne pen costs.
To find out the cost of one pen we need to divide $3.84 by 8.
$3.84 / 8 = $0.48
1 pen cost $0.48
We then need to work out the cost of 15 pens. So from using the information that one pen costs $0.48 we can multiply that by 15 to find out the answer.
$0.48 x 15 = $7.20
15 pens cost $7.20
