Answer:

32\ hair\ ties

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To make one hair ties is needed 3 3/8 inches of elastic

so

using proportion

Find out how many hair ties can you make with 9 feet of elastic

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

Convert 9 ft to inches

9\ ft=9*12=108\ in

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

3\frac{3}{8}\ in=\frac{3*8+3}{8}=\frac{27}{8}\ in

using proportion

\frac{1}{(27/8)}=\frac{x}{108}\\\\x=108*8/27\\\\x=32\ hair\ ties

The vertex form of a function is g(x) = (x - 3)2 + 9. How does the graph of g(x) compare to the graph of the function
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Its the second choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = (x - 3)^2 + 9

The -3 in the parentheses moves the graph of x^2 3 units to the right.

The + 9 moves it upwards 9 units.

Which of these systems of linear equations has no solution? 2 x + 8 y = 15. 4 x + 16 y = 30. 2 x minus y = 18. 4 x + 2 y = 38. 4
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

4 x -3 y = 16 and

8 x -6 y = 34 are the equations that have no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have a look at the rules for a pair of lines, that have solution or no solution.

Let the equations be:

a_1x+b_1y+c_1=0 and

a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0

1. There exists exactly one solution:

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}\neq\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}

2. There exists infinitely many solutions i.e. lines are identical.

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

3. There exists No solutions i.e. lines are parallel and will never intersect.

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}\neq\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

Now, let us have a look at the given pair of lines:

Option a)

2 x + 8 y = 15\\4 x + 16 y = 30.

The ratio:

\dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{8}{16}=\dfrac{15}{30} = \dfrac{1}{2}

Hence, the lines are identical, infinite solutions.

Option b)

2 x - y = 18\\4 x + 2 y = 38

The ratio:

\dfrac{2}{4}\neq \dfrac{-1}{2}

Hence, exactly one solution.

Option c)

4 x + 7 y = 17\\8 x -14 y = 36

The ratio:

\dfrac{4}{8}\neq \dfrac{-7}{14}\\\dfrac{1}{2}\neq \dfrac{-1}{2}

Hence, exactly one solution.

Option d)

4 x - 3 y = 16\\8 x - 6 y = 34.

The ratio:

\dfrac{4}{8}= \dfrac{-3}{-6}\neq\dfrac{16}{34}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}= \dfrac{1}{2}\neq\dfrac{8}{17}

Hence, There is no solution.

The correct answer is:

4 x -3 y = 16 and

8 x -6 y = 34 are the equations that have no solution.
