A garph y=2 represents a line parallel to the x axis with the y coordinate equal to 2.
The point which lies on the y=2 graph has its y coordinate equal to 2.
In the given options, (3,2) is the coordinate with the y coordinate equal to 2.
Hence, (3,2) lies on the graph of y = 2.
Option (D) is the answer.
A system is inconsistent when there are no solutions between the two equations. Graphically, the lines will be parallel (they never meet!) and the slopes will be the same. But the y-intercepts will be different.
Let's look at the four equations, with each solved as needed, into y = mx + b form.
A: 2x + y = 5
y = 5 - 2x
y = -2x + 5
Compared to y = 2x + 5, the slopes are different, so this system won't be inconsistent. Not a good choice.
B: y = 2x + 5
Compared to y = 2x + 5, the slopes are the same and the y intercepts are the same. This system has infinitely many solutions. Not a good choice.
C: 2x - 4y = 10
-4y = 10 - 2x
-4y = -2x + 10
y = 2/4x -10/4
Here the slopes are different, so, like A this is not a good choice.
D: 2y - 4x = -10
2y = =10 + 4x
2y = 4x - 10
y = 2x - 5
Compared to y = 2x + 5 we have the same slopes and different y intercepts. The lines will be parallel and the system is inconsistent.
Thus, D is the best choice.
Answer:....................
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A =
bh ( b is the base and h the height )
Here h = 3x + 15 and A = 15x + 75, thus
× b × (3x + 15) = 15x + 75
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
b(3x + 15) = 30x + 150
Divide both sides by (3x + 15)
b =
← factor numerator and denominator
=
← cancel the factor (x + 5) on numerator/denominator
= 
= 10
Answer:
Number of girls = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
girls : boys = 5 : 4
Number of girls = 5x
Number of boys = 4x
Total students = 27
5x +4x = 27
9x = 27
x = 27/9
x = 3
Number of girls = 5x = 5*3 = 15
