Answer: Choice C) </h3><h3>
The system can only be independent and consistent</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
Let's go through the answer choices
- A) This isn't possible. Either a system is consistent or inconsistent. It cannot be both at the same time. The term "inconsistent" literally means "not consistent". It's like saying a cup is empty and full at the same time. We can rule out choice A.
- B) This is similar to choice A and we cannot have a system be both independent and dependent. Either a system is independent or dependent, but not both. Independence means that the two equations are not tied together, while dependent equations are some multiple of each other. We can rule out choice B.
- C) We'll get back to this later
- D) The independence/dependence status is unknown without the actual equations present. However, we know 100% that this system is not inconsistent. This is because the system has at least one solution. Inconsistent systems do not have any solutions at all (eg: parallel lines that never cross). We can rule out choice D because of this.
Going back to choice C, again we don't have enough info to determine if the system is independent or dependent, but we at least know it's consistent. Consistent systems have one or more solutions. So part of choice C can be confirmed. It being the only thing left means that it has to be the final answer.
If it were me as the teacher, I'd cross out the "independent" part of choice C and simply say the system is consistent.
This question requires creating a few equations and working through them step-by-step. Now, first let's give each of the shapes a variable: let's say that the blue shape is a, the orange shape is b and the green shape is c.
1. We can technically create six formulas for the magic square, with three for sum of the rows and three for the sum of the columns, however the smartest way to approach this is to observe whether there are any obvious answers that we can get.
We can see in row 2 that there are three of the same shape (a) that add to 57. This makes it very simple to calculate the value of the shape.
Since 3a = 57
a = 57/3 = 19
2. Now we need to find a row or column that includes a and one other shape; we could choose either column 2 or 3, so let's go with column 2. Remembering that the blue shape is a and the orange shape is b:
2a + b = 50
Now, given that a = 19:
2(19) + b = 50
38 + b = 50
b = 12
3. We can now take any of the rows or columns that include the third shape (c) since we already know the values of the other two shapes. Let's take column 1:
a + b + c = 38
19 + 12 + c = 38
31 + c = 38
c = 38 - 31
c = 7
Thus, the value of the blue shape is 19, the value of the orange shape is 12 and the value of the green shape is 7.
Answer:
(d) -11
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the functions is evaluated in the usual way: put the number where the variable is in the expression and simplify.
h(-1) = -2(-1)² -3(-1) +1 = -2 +3 +1 = 2
f(2) = (2(2) +7)/(2 -3) = 11/-1 = -11
Then f(h(-1)) is ...
f(h(-1)) = f(2) = -11
