Let t, h, b represent the weighs of tail, head, and body, respectively.

t = 4 . . . . given

h = t + b/2 . . . . the head weighs as much as the tail and half the body

b/2 = h + t . . . . half the body weighs as much as the head and tail

_____

Substituting for b/2 in the second equation using the expression in the third equation, we have

... h = t + (h + t)

Subtracting h from both sides gives

... 0 = 2t . . . . . . in contradiction to the initial statement about tail weight.

Conclusion: there's no solution to the problem given here.

How many solutions does the system of equations have?<br> 6x+y=2<br> -18x+3y=12
Tamiku [17]
There will be one solution. To solve that:
1. Get the y alone by switching the places.
6x+y=2 > y=2-6x 
-18x+3y=12 > 3y=12-18x > Then divide 3 on each number > y=4-6x
After doing that, you can solve this in graphing or algebra way.

Ima do the algebra way: 

SO we have 2 system of equations. Now pick one equestion.
I will pick, y=2-6x. Now Ima replace the Y with the other equation y=4-6x >  
4-6x=2-6x.

Now solve. And get >  0 aka Infinite Solution.

 if angle RZT=110, angle RZS=3s, and angle TZS=8s, what are angle RZS and angle TZS?
skelet666 [1.2K]
8s-3s=5s
5s=110
Divide both sides by 5 => s=22
RZS = 3s = 3(22) = 66
TZS= 8s = 8(22) = 176

What is a rational number can you please put it in not plagiarized words? also give me a example of one and how they work thank
34kurt

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be expressed in the form

\frac{a}{b} ← where a and b are integers

An example is

\frac{2}{3}

- 5 can be expressed as \frac{-5}{1} and is therefore rational

Numbers which are not rational are irrational

π and \sqrt{2} are examples of irrational numbers
