Answer:

The first system is consistent & dependent; the second system is inconsistent; and the third system is consistent & independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

A consistent system is a system that has at least one solution.  A dependent system is a system that has infinite solutions, because the equations describe the same line.  An independent system is a system that has one solution.  

An inconsistent system is a system that has no solution because the lines are parallel.

The first system is

\left \{ {{x+3y=4} \atop {3x+9y=12}} \right.

To solve this, we would make the coefficients of y the same.  We would do this by multiplying the top equation by 3:

\left \{ {{3(x+3y=4)} \atop {3x+9y=12}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{3x+9y=12} \atop {3x+9y=12}} \right.

We have the same equation; thus this system is consistent and dependent.

The second system is

\left \{ {{3x-4y=12} \atop {6x-8y=21}} \right.

To solve this, we will make the coefficients of x the same; we will do this by multiplying the top equation by 2:

\left \{ {{2(3x-4y=12)} \atop {6x-8y=21}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{6x-8y=24} \atop {6x-8y=21}} \right.

We have two equations that have the same slope but different y-intercepts; these lines are parallel and thus are inconsistent.

The third system is

\left \{ {{2x-3y=8} \atop {-3x+2y=8}} \right.

To solve this, we will make the coefficients of x the same; we will do this by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by 2:

\left \{ {{3(2x-3y=8)} \atop {2(-3x+2y=8)}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{6x-9y=24} \atop {-6x+4y=16}} \right.

Now we will add the two equations:

\left \{ {{6x-9y=24} \atop {+(-6x+4y=16)}} \right. \\\\-5y = 40

Divide both sides by -5:

-5y/-5 = 40/-5

y = -8

Now substitute this into the first equation:

2x-3(-8) = 8

2x+24 = 8

Subtract 24 from each side:

2x+24 - 24 = 8-24

2x = -16

Divide both sides by 2:

2x/2 = -16/2

x = -8

The solution is (-8, -8); thus the system is consistent and independent.

What are geologists able to tell archaeologists about fossils?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

C. . how old they are

Step-by-step explanation:

Geologist are people that deal with the internal structure of the earth.

They study Rocks, and it's deposit accumulated millions of years back.

They can also give account of what happened in the past and the types of organisms that existed in the past.

Fossils are traces of event, remains of dead animals and decomposed object.

So geologist can give account of how many years a particular fossil has lived in that particular environment.

Natalie walked
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

7 miles / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm taking this to mean she walked 3.5 miles. She did this 1/2 hour.

Givens

d (distance ) = 3.5 miles

t (time) = 1/2 hour

r (rate) = ?

Formula

r = d/t

Solution

The easiest way to do this is to change the fractions to decimals.

t = 1/2 = 0.5 hours

r = 3.5 / 0.5

r = 7 miles per hour.
