Answer:
a) Infinite solutions
b) No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
First, know the following:
If the graphs intersect, there's only one solution.
If the graphs are parallel, there are no solutions.
If the graphs are the exact same line, there are infinite solutions.
For a):
Change the first equation into a linear one.
Change the second equation into a linear one.
- 4x+6y=12
- 6y=-4x+12
Boom. You have two equations which are equal. As stated above, graphs on the exact same line have infinite solutions.
For b)
They are already in linear form so hurray.
These lines are parallel since they have the SAME slope but a different y-intercept. As stated above, parallel lines have no solutions.
Answer:
2 sets of possible solutions:
x=3, y = 5
and
x=-1, y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the graphical method, (see attached)
you can graph both equations and find their intersection points.
From the attached plot, you can see that the graphs intersect at (3,5) and (-1,-3)
Alternatively, you can solve this numerically by solving the following system of equations. You will get the same answer.
y = 2x + 1 ------------------- eq. (1)
y = x² - 4 ------------------- eq. (2)
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the pythagorean theorem, we know that a^2+ b^2=c^2
In our case, we know b, which is 5 and c which is 13.
If we plug that into the equation, we get a^2+ 5^2 = 13^2
Next, we simplify the equation. a^2 + 25 = 169
Then we subtract 25 from 169. 169 - 25 = 144.
Lastly, we do the square root of 144 and we get 12 which is the missing side.
Answer is D.Don't take out the square
