Answer: A) Multiply both sides of the top equation by 2.

Step-by-step explanation: The x-coefficient of the first equation (the number that is next to the x) is 4, and the x-coefficient of the second equation is 8, in order to them to be equal, we need to multiply the first equation by 2 (both sides), so the correct answer is the corresponding to option A, the equations would be:

8x+4y=8 first equation (after multiply it by 2)

8x-y=18 second equation

<u>The answer is A. Multiply both sides of the top equation by 2</u>

So since we know that 4 × 2 = 8, it would only make sense to multiply both sides by 2 so that the top equation has the x coefficient be 8.

A ramp slopes from a warehouse door down to the street. The height of the ramp is 5 feet, and the ramp ends 10 feet from the bas
Tomtit [17]
If you graph this, your first point will be at (0,5), as the ramp is at the warehouse door but 5 feet up. The second point is (10,0) as it is touching the ground but it's 10 feet away from the warehouse.
To find slope, you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
When substituting in the variables, you get (0-5)/(10-0), which is -5/10, which is simplified to -1/2. Of course, that is when the warehouse is Quadrant II. If you look at it from another point of view, the slope will be positive so your answer is A) 1/2.

Find the discriminant to determine the number of solutions for the quadratic equation a^2-5a=6
Bingel [31]
A^2-5a = 6
a^2-5a-6 = 0
Discriminant = (-5)^2-4(1)(-6) = 49
Discriminant is positive so there are two solutions
