There is no solution for this equation since they have the same slope, x/1. The only difference between these two is that their y intercepts are different meaning that they will be parallel lines that will never intersect among one other. For example, think of it as two separate lines that are have the same slope and never gain more distance/units from one another.
Solve:
To solve, you have to get one of this equations into a Ax+By=C equation form, standard equation. Let’s change y=x+4 into a standard equation.
We have to get x and y together and 4 as C.
So let’s subtract x from both sides;
y=x+4
-x -x
————————
-x+y=4
This is a standard equation.
Now let’s substitute.
take the standard equation and plug in y which is x+4 since there is a equation meaning it’s y=x+4
-x+(x+4)=4
Let’s simplify this mess.
-x+x equals 0. So we are left with 4=4.
Subtract 4 from both sides and we get 0=0
This means there is no solution. Hoped this helped.
Assume that each material in each category has an equal chance of being selected.
Categories:
(a) Type of wood used to make the cabinet: birch, maple, cherry.
Each type of wood has a probability of 1/3 to be selected.
(b) Type of finish: transparent, semi-transparent.
Each type of finish has a probability of 1/2 to be selected.
(c) Knob: bronze, steel, wood.
Each material has 1/3 probability to be selected.
Each event (selecting material for the cabinet, for the finish, and for the knob) is an independent event.
Therefore
Probablity(birch wood AND bronze knob) = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9
Probability(wood knob) = 1/3
Probability(transparent stain) = 1/2
Probability(cheryy wood AND semi-transparent stain) = (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
C) Line segments have two endpoints and a vertex is a common endpoint where two line segments meet.
Explanation:
A line segment is defined as a portion of a line that has two endpoints.
A vertex is defined as the common endpoint of two or more rays or line segments.
This makes C the correct option.
