Answer:

214

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up would be x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854, naturally as the numbers are consecutive. Solving for x:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854,

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 854,

4x + 1 + 2 + 3 = 854,

4x + 6 = 854,

4x = 854 - 6 = 848,

x = 848/4 = 212

The third number then should be 212 + 2 = 214

Given:

The system of equation is

y-8=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-4

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-4

To find:

The solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y=mx+b

Where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Write the given equation in slope intercept form.

The first equation is

y-8=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-4

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-4+8

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x+4              ...(i)

Here, slope is -\dfrac{1}{3} and y-intercept is 4.

The second equation is

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-4              ...(i)

Here, slope is -\dfrac{1}{3} and y-intercept is -4.

Since the slopes of both lines are same but the y-intercepts are different, therefore the given equations represent parallel lines.

Parallel lines never intersect each other. So, the given system of equation has no solution.

Hence, the correct option is B.

Solve the system by adding. Drag and drop numbers into the coordinates to complete the ordered pair.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

(-3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 3y = 3

x − 3y = −18

Solve by addition/Elimination

x = -3

y = 5

So,

The solution of the system is (-3,5).

Find the value of x that makes line m ll n
guapka [62]

Answer:

See below ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

14.

  • Between two lines m ║ n, the ∦ cuts through them forming two angles
  • As it forms a line, the sum of the angles is 180°
  • 3x + 47 + x + 7 = 180
  • 4x + 54 = 180
  • 4x = 126
  • x = 126/4 = 63/2 = 31.5

15.

  • Alternate exterior angles on a transversal are equal
  • 5x = 2x + 78
  • 3x = 78
  • x = 26
