When given a literal equation, you will often be asked to solve the equation for a given variable. The goal is to isolate that given variable. The process is the same process that you use to solve linear equations; the only difference is that you will be working with a lot more letters, and you may not be able to simplify as much as you can with linear equations.
2: x = -5/3 ; y = -4/3 (-5/3, -4/3)
Answer:
∠ABC= 35°
Step-by-step explanation:
im not sure if u need explanation but comment if u do
(a) Answer: One solution.
Explanation: two lines that have same slope with opposite sign will necessarily cross each other at a single point, as one is "pointing uphill" and the other "downhill."
(b) Answer: Infinitely many solutions.
Explanation:
2x + 3y = 5.5
4x + 6y = 11 | divide by 2
-->
2x + 3y = 5.5
2x + 3y = 5.5
--> equations are identical.
2x + 3y = 2x + 3y
so any (x,y) will satisfy this equation. This means infinitely many solutions.
(c) Answer: One solution
Explanation:
Continuing the two lines it becomes obvious they will cross at one point (the solution)
(d) Answer: No solution
Explanation: If the two lines are parallel, they will never cross (by definition of "parallel"). Therefore there will be no solution to the corresponding linear system.
