In the case of whole numbers, dividing 2 by itself would prove the conjecture false.
2/2 = 1
2/8 = 0.25
Answer:
3600 miles on 240 gal
Step-by-step explanation:
80 gal can go 1200
160 gal can go 2400
240 gal can go 3600
An equation that doesn't have a solution would have to end up as something impossible when you solve it all out, like
5=3.
When you simplify your equation out, you get
3x-4=3x+?
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-4=?
From this, you can tell that you need to out something in the ? that will make the equation false, or something that doesn't equal -4.
You could put anything in the ? as long as it is not -4.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = 0, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the first equation into the second equation so 3x + 3(x+2) = 6. Simplify this to get x = 0. Plug x = 0 back into the first equation to get y = 2.
